It’s time to admit that Brexit has been a disaster, exacerbated by pandemic/war, and have another referendum which as this poll indicates, would surely result in a substantial majority now voting for us to return to the EU.
Let’s be honest: Brexit isn’t working.
British exporters are struggling, our living standards are falling and the UK is now the only G7 country with a smaller economy than before the pandemic.
Unless we face up to the harm Brexit is causing we can't start to address it.
