Cash controls convince many that accepting tough terms is better than leaving eurozone
A new survey on Friday ahead of Greece's make-or-break weekend referendum on whether to accept tough new bailout conditions showed a swing against the government to a "yes" result, amid a sense of crisis fueled by cash rationing and burgeoning protests.
The poll by Greece's Alco Institute said 44.8 percent of Greeks intend to vote "yes" and 43.4 percent "no" - making it the first published survey to give a lead to the "yes" vote ahead of Sunday's ballot.
