> In June 2025, 56% of people in Great Britain thought it was the wrong decision:

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.

Note 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.
