And the European migrant crisis was a major factor when it came to how people saw the UK’s future in Europe.
The findings will act as a stark warning to David Cameron as to the depth of public frustration with Brussels.
Fifty-one per cent of people who expressed a firm opinion in a survey of more than 10,000 adults across the country supported exit from the European Union.
The survey also showed that the European migrant crisis meant 45.5 per cent of voters were “more likely” to back withdrawal from the EU.
And a massive 58.8 per cent of voters thought the Prime Minister and other European leaders were wrong to allow visa-free access to the EU for Turkish citizens in a deal last month.
The exclusive survey, conducted by polling firm Survation, was released last night as Mr Cameron prepares for crunch talks with European leaders in his floundering attempt to win a new EU deal.
His proposals to restrict benefit claims by EU migrants and release Britain from the drive to “ever-closer union” will be the subject of detailed discussions at a summit this Thursday.
Mr Cameron wants EU migrants banned from claiming in-work benefits, such as tax credits, for four years from their arrival in the UK.
