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.

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.
