Call for campaigns to edify the voters

RIGHT-WING voters will decide whether or not Britain remains in the EU because they feel better informed than those on the left, according to a poll published yesterday.

The Electoral Reform Society’s researchers found that almost half of all voters feel poorly or very poorly informed about the EU referendum. 

The Morning Star’s analysis of the figures shows left-wing and working-class voters are most likely to be in the dark about the poll on June 23.
