"In" camp extends lead ahead of UK's Brexit vote - poll
LONDON, May 18 (Reuters) - The campaign to keep Britain in the European Union has widened its lead over the "Out" camp, according to an opinion poll by YouGov (LSE: YOU.L - news) which was reported by a journalist at The Times newspaper.
Forty-four percent of respondents wanted Britain to stay in EU compared with 40 percent who wanted the country to leave, the poll showed, according to a message posted on Twitter (Xetra: A1W6XZ - news) by Times political correspondent Sam Coates.
The previous YouGov poll for The Times, published 10 days ago, gave the "In" camp a two-point lead, Coates said. (Writing by William Schomberg, editing by Estelle Shirbon)
