<p>A big generational gap in attitudes towards Brexit emerged in a ComRes survey for the Lead Not Leave campaign, which seeks to keep the UK in the EU with greater national control over issues such as welfare and immigration.</p>
<p>Nearly three quarters (72%) of voters aged 18-34 who expressed an opinion backed the Lead Not Leave stance, compared with 38% of people aged 55 and over, according to the poll.</p>
<p>The stark difference in how age groups see the situation was also highlighted by the finding that a no-deal exit from the EU is supported by 28% of 18 to 34-year-olds who expressed a view, compared with 62% of voters aged 55 and over.</p>

<p>Anti-Brexit campaigner Gina Miller, who co-founded the cross-party Lead Not Leave initiative, said the survey showed that younger voters still want “to fight” for EU membership.</p>
<p>Ms Miller said she expected Article 50 to be extended, meaning the UK would stay in the EU beyond the scheduled March 29 exit date.</p>
<p>The campaigner told the Press Association: “I think now in any scenario we end up with an extension.”</p>
<p>Ms Miller added: “It is the younger generation that will have to live with the consequences of leaving the EU in the chaotic and destructive way this Government now appears set upon.</p>
<p>“Our young people have every right to be heard and their concerns can and should be addressed, not least by the opposition.</p>
<p>“The young people are saying clearly that they want their generation to remain and be a leading voice in Europe, not to trail behind it.”</p>
<p>Ms Miller said she believed a new referendum could emerge as the only way out of the Brexit impasse in Parliament.</p>
<p>ComRes interviewed 4,073 adults online between January 23-27 and information was weighted to be “representative of all British adults by age, gender, region and social grade”, Lead Not Leave said.</p>
