NEW: How robust is opinion change on Brexit/Brexit
@persuasionuk.bsky.social research properly stress tested it.
We find a fair bit of softness. We think headline Rejoin support is more like 52 v 48% (!) rather than ~64-36% you see in polls.
Not fatal for Rejoin but worth paying attention to🧵

Farage & Reform UK love to scream about immigration
But go into complete denial when confronted by actual facts & figures
Such as - the massive rise in immigration happened AFTER Brexit when Tories were in power
All Reform UK leaders campaigned for Brexit, and are ex-Tories

"Boris had sort of chuckled nervously over the fact that £350 million we send the EU £350 million a week was plastered on the side of the bus."

They all knew it was a lie. Now you have to deal with the consequences.

It's true that this wasn't anticipated by the EES at its pre-Brexit conception (at which time the UK was a prominent advocate of it so as to 'control our borders'). But, hey, the UK left so it's a bit rich to be calling for "a tailor-made British solution":

We all know why Labour had to put those red lines in their 2024 manifesto. That shouldn't stop them having a national conversation on future EU/UK relationship.

How can it be betrayal to reverse a policy that actively damages the UK economy?
How can it be betrayal at reverse a policy that serves the political interests of Putin's Russia?
How can it be betrayal to reverse a policy that makes the UK more vulnerable to oligarchs?
Brexit is the betrayal.

It's cost between 6-8% of UK GDP per capita over the last decade, a hit of between £180bn and £240bn, new government research shows.
