POLL 88 IN WHATUKTHINKS SERIES -

The 88th poll since August 2016 in the WhatUKthinks series has been published- see HERE. It shows a 7% lead for WRONG in response to the question: In hindsight, do you think Britain was right or wrong to vote to leave the EU? This is only the second time we have seen a 7% lead for WRONG and only the third time support for RIGHT has dropped to 40%. The direction of travel has been clear for at least eighteen months.

In 2018 there has been 37 polls in total with WRONG ahead in 35 of them. One was even and RIGHT was in front by 1% just once nine months ago.

The latest figures are:

Total No of polls since August 2016: 88

Polls with RIGHT IN THE LEAD: 28 - (22 in the first 27 polls)

Polls with WRONG IN THE LEAD: 51 - (45 in the last 50 polls)

Even: 9

Last time RIGHT was in the lead: 17th January 2018

I am waiting for support for RIGHT to dip below 40%. This will be  cause for celebration.
