Growing disenchantment with the UK political system
Brexit
Underlining the damage the Brexit process is doing to faith in politics in the UK, the Hansard Society's annual Audit of Political Engagement has revealed a rate of disenchantment with the system unprecedented in recent years, surpassing even the fallout from the MP expenses scandal. When asked their opinion on the present system of governing Britain, 37 percent of respondents said they think it needs 'a great deal of improvement' - up from 29 percent last year and a whole 19 points higher than the first survey published in 2004.
