Nearly three times as many people thought the government was handling things badly Since the cabinet reached the Chequers agreement on how to handle the UK’s future relationship with the EU, that ratio has increased.Voters who wish to leave the EU have become much more critical, with only about 20% thinking the government is doing well, while 70% feel it is doing badly.
Majority voters think that Brexit will be bad for the economy, similar to how they felt before the referendum. According to ICM’s most recent poll, 44% of people think Brexit will be bad for the economy. That is an almost identical proportion to the 43% who held that view 18 months ago.
Immigration was the main issue for many of those who voted to leave the EU in 2016. However, some recent polling has suggested that the level of concern has declined. The proportion of people who think the rules on immigration should be the same for EU residents as those from elsewhere in the world fell from 74% before the vote to 59% now.
Recent polls that asked people how they would vote if the referendum question was asked again often found a small majority wanted to leave the EU. Ever since, nearly every poll has found a small majority saying that they would vote to stay in the EU. However, there is no consistent evidence suggesting that support for staying in the EU has increased. The UK remains the same when regarding Brexit.
Overall, the majority of British voters that had voted to leave the EU have backpedaled. Although there will always be those strong supporters, Britain has begun to question whether or not not Brexit truly is worth the hassle the nation has been dragged through.
