A "Vote Remain" activist urges people to vote outside Kings Cross station in central London on June 23, 2016

Voting ended in Britain's historic referendum on EU membership on Thursday, with the final opinion poll pointing to a slender victory for the "Remain" campaign.

A YouGov survey conducted on Thursday found 52 percent were backing Britain's membership of the European Union, and 48 percent wanted to leave. There will be no exit polls.

Nigel Farage, leader of the anti-EU UK Independence Party, told Sky News television, it "looks like 'Remain' will edge it".
