New poll: "If a second referendum were held with the options of accepting Theresa May’s deal or remaining in the EU on the ballot paper, 46% said they would back remain, against 36% who would vote to leave on the terms of the prime minister’s proposal."

Playing with the numbers to make those figures add up to a hundred percent, that works out at 56.1% support for remaining in the EU, and 43.9% support for leaving the EU on Theresa May's deal.
That probably reflects a combination of factors, including the general mood swing from leave to remain that has been picked up consistently in polls since shortly after the referendum, but also the perceived rubbishness of Theresa May's Brexit deal.
However, the news is not all rosy. The same poll found a dead heat (43% apiece) between holding a second referendum and leaving without delay (and therefore without a deal) on 29 March.
