Bregrets? There Are a Few

Seven years ago to the day, the UK voted to leave the European Union - a result which shocked even some of those campaigning for it, and one which changed the political landscape in Europe forever.

Forever? According to a poll being reported on today, support for rejoining the EU has never been higher since the UK's political divorce from the mainland (58%). As our infographic using data from another new survey shows, support for reversing the move isn't exclusive to those that chose 'Remain' or didn't vote back in 2016. While still a minority, 12 percent of 'Leave' voters are now displaying signs of 'Bregret', saying they would support or strongly support a return to the European fold.

Whether the political will, for what would arguably be an equally momentous decision, exists to any significant degree within the major parties remains a significant doubt. If there were to be a changing of guard at the next general election though, and public opinion continues in its current direction, 'never say forever' could be a motto to emerge out the Brexit ashes.
