Regardless of any perceived poll bias, in this case some have said they never saw a pre-Brexit poll that favoured leave. There were several, and that's what made me put money on vote leave even though I voted remain. Looking at BFP's link, between 20th May and 16th June there were 30 polls. Of those 30, 9 favoured remain, 18 favoured leave, and 3 were equal. That was probably when I put my bet on.

But some never saw a poll that was in favour of leave!
