How many thought it was the right decision at the time?

Remain was 48% so it's actually not that large of a swing in total. It's not like it was 5% remain and now it would be 56% or something.
But it does indicate if the referendum was taking place today it might swing the other way.
- lostlogin 9mo agoNote the turn out too. 72% isn’t great for a major change like this. The non-voters would easily swing it either way as a landslide.
- rdtsc 9mo agoAgree, that's a good point. Perhaps many who would have voted remain just didn't think it was a chance it would pass so sort of stayed home because of that.
