The majority of Britons want to return to the European Union

The majority of Britons want to return to the European Union

In all current polls, an average of 59 percent favor joining the European family. So said the famous political scientist John Curtis Watchman.

However, there is no real question of ‘bregret’, sorry about Brexit. Three-quarters of Brexit voters will make the same decision. “A lot of people’s views on Brexit are deeply ingrained,” Curtis said.

According to a poll by the Tony Blair Institute, about a third of respondents agree with the status quo: 36 percent do not want to return to the EU, and 34 percent still think leaving is the right decision. The think tank founded by former Prime Minister Blair maintains that young people in particular, who have now reached voting age, are more pro-European than older age groups.

Only one in ten Britons now see Brexit as a success, according to a survey by London think tank The United Kingdom in a Changing Europe. A majority of 52% thinks that Brexit has not been a success. The same proportion says that leaving the European Union has hurt the British economy. Even among those who voted for Brexit, only 18% are satisfied with the outcome.

Aside from opinions on Brexit, the prestige of UK politicians has taken a huge hit. At least three-quarters of respondents indicated that they had lost confidence in British politicians in recent years.

The Tony Blair Institute is calling on the government to voluntarily agree to European rules on product standards and food safety. It says this could be the basis for negotiations with the European Union on closer trade relations. “Our survey results show that the vast majority of Britons believe that Brexit in its current form is not working and would welcome a rapprochement between the UK and the EU,” says Anton Spisak of the think tank.
