That again feels like woo. And their claim to have predicted the Turkish referendum and the Dutch one- most of us could have done that!
They don't appear to have done any other polls here.

I wouldn't trust any poll based on smart phones alone,not least because I do not possess one and am determined so to remain. Luddites of the world unite.

My old Mum used to say, if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything.
Therefore this is my opinion of this 'poll':
And, by the way, that is also my opinion of the Yougov individual seat tracker.
(I wonder on a daily basis how much of this forum would exist if my old M's dictum were heeded)

They claimed to have called our EU referendum right, I think? Which probably doesn't mean anything even if true, but still.

Ah right, so one of the relatively few surveys to *over*state leave. Again not sure what, if anything, should be drawn from that.

Martin Belam in the Graun live blog has explained that this is definite flim-flam. They basically buy ad space on apps and put in a survey question.
He implies it's an exercise in selling their advertising services.

This "flim-flam" still got closer to the result than certain "respected" pollsters.
Also to be noted in passing that they did a previous survey about a month ago, which gave a big Tory lead just as everyone else did then.

Might some competition from outside the British Polling Council encourage our traditional pollsters of choice to get their acts together?
