POLLING

The latest YouGov poll in the WhatUKthinks series was published yesterday - asking if in hindsight Britain was right or wrong to vote to leave the EU (HERE).  It shows another healthy 8% lead for WRONG. The lead hasn't been under 6% since 5th November and 13 polls.

What I think it tells us is how slowly opinion is changing. Support for Brexit is clearly ebbing away with 57 polls since RIGHT held a narrow 1% lead more than a year ago on 17th January 2018.

Update: the 1% lead figure originally read 50% owing to me not actually checking what my fingers were doing on the keyboard!
