Brexit is a bigger headache for the British economy than the coronavirus epidemic – now the majority of Britons consider leaving a mistake

| Trade Policy
Brexit has resulted in significant economic challenges for the UK, with the Office for Budget Responsibility estimating that it will cause twice as much damage to the British economy as the coronavirus pandemic. Trade has permanently decreased by about 15%, shrinking the economy by 4% compared to if the UK had remained in the EU. Increased bureaucracy and trade difficulties are highlighted by business owners like Natalie Judge and Rosario Rospo, who face increased costs and complexities. Public opinion has shifted, with a majority now viewing Brexit as a mistake, although rejoining the EU is not seen as a realistic option. While some political goals, such as ending free movement of EU labor, have been achieved, the economic benefits promised have been elusive, and the UK remains divided on the issue.

This political analyst just examined 11 Brexit polls and the results are fascinating

English
| Referendum
Political analyst John Curtice reviewed 11 polls from various agencies regarding the popularity of a second Brexit referendum, or 'People's Vote.' He found that support for a vote on the Brexit deal is growing, particularly when phrased as a 'public vote' rather than a 'second referendum.' Leave supporters showed more openness to non-binary options beyond Leave/Remain, while Remain voters largely favored a new vote, especially if it included the option to remain in the EU. The polls also revealed increasing dissatisfaction with the government's Brexit solutions, with a recent YouGov survey indicating a slight majority in favor of a new referendum post-Chequers Agreement. Curtice suggests that further data is needed for a clearer picture and emphasizes the importance of question wording in future polls.

Can we rejoin the EU? It was daft to leave but don’t romanticise the idea
01 Oct 2023

www.thetimes.com
|
English
| Politics
The article discusses the potential for the UK to rejoin the EU, highlighting the economic and political consequences of Brexit. It cites polling data showing a majority support for rejoining and details the negative impacts on the economy, including reduced business investment, lower exports, and higher food prices. The article also critiques the political landscape, noting that neither the Conservative nor Labour parties are likely to advocate for rejoining in the near future. It concludes that while rejoining the EU could mitigate some issues, many of the UK's economic problems predate Brexit and would not be resolved by re-entry.

| Political Bias
The article discusses the issue of 'alphabet bias' in Scottish council elections, where candidates with names earlier in the alphabet have a significant advantage. Kenneth Gibson, an SNP MSP, raised the issue at Holyrood, citing evidence from multiple elections. Despite calls for change, George Adam, the minister for parliamentary business, downplayed the problem. Research by Sir John Curtice supports the existence of alphabetical bias. Gibson and others advocate for randomizing ballot papers to ensure fairness.

The article highlights the impact of Brexit, austerity, and the cost of living crisis on the UK's economic stability. Local perspectives from Castle Cary reveal widespread dissatisfaction with the government's handling of economic issues, while experts suggest that Sunak's policies may not be sufficient to regain public trust or secure reelection.

British voters heading for a Disunited Kingdom

Mail Online
|
English
| United Kingdom Politics
As the UK approaches a general election on May 7, 2015, voter allegiances are shifting away from the Conservative and Labour parties, which have historically dominated British politics. Disillusionment with these parties' handling of issues such as the EU, immigration, and the economy has led to the rise of the UK Independence Party (UKIP) and the Scottish National Party (SNP), among others. The SNP's surge in popularity could result in significant influence over the formation of the next government, while UKIP's anti-EU stance has pressured Prime Minister David Cameron to propose an EU referendum. The fragmentation of the political landscape suggests the end of the Conservative-Labour duopoly and raises questions about the future of the UK's electoral system.
