Britons would vote to rejoin the EU
‘Bregret’ stands at highest level recorded to date
How would Britons vote if the EU referendum were taking place in 2023?
A majority of Britons (55%) say that, were the EU referendum taking place now, seven years after the original date, they would vote to Remain. Three in ten 31% say they would vote to Leave. This gives a headline voting intention of 64% to 36%.
The results show that one in six Leave voters (18%) now say that they would vote to Remain were the EU referendum being held now. Almost three quarters (73%) say they would still vote to leave the EU.
Ask them if they'd be willing to adopt the Euro and allow access to the Schengen zone and I'm curious if that number would still be the same. I don't think Brits realize they're not gonna get the sweetheart deal they used to have.
It should be a whole EU vote. Not just UK and EU's country leaders.
Any member can veto as it stands today
I'm not educated enough in this topic to have an opinion of value but I think it's hilarious that you want a referendum to decide while this fuckup of astronomical proportion happened due to a referendum.
Hmm maybe we could require the vote to be unanimous
I've said it before and I'll say it again. These people are so short sighted they'd walk nose-first into a brick wall.
It's too late to just change your minds now. Had that chance the whole 3+ years we spent sitting on Article 20. Had all the ramifications spelt out in front of you. Only now they've git a bruised nose do they start turning going, "maybe that was a bad idea".
God I hate the influence America has had on British politics.

That's interesting you think such closed-minded, right wing people are limited to the US and that mentality was "exported" or "influenced".
I got news for you, people are people wherever there are people. This isn't influence of one country over the other. Give me a population, I'll show you right wingers, left wingers, and centrists. The Brits who voted for Brexit were as inherently racist and zenophobic as any of those good ol' boys in the South of the US (or other regions, it's not limited to that one).
No country or people are special, we're all the same.
The older, ever-Tories were always going to vote Brexit, no matter what. Trumpism, however, played into the hands of a lot of younger people who themselves later admitted, as many of us know such people, that they really had no business voting the way they did - many went on to vote Tory for the first time ever & can't really point at anything that makes sense to them right now. They got played by Cummings & Cambridge Analytica. It's even on Cummings' blog, if he has not taken it down. So there is validity to both angles but the combination is what sealed it.
I don't believe it. Some right wing politician will say that the EU wants to ban fish and chips and then they will all vote against.
Fish and chips are already gone, unfortunately
