Ten years on from the 2016 referendum, nearly half of Britons say they would vote ‘rejoin’ should they now be given another choice. Though Brexit was ultimately decided by the total proportion of votes, rather than by constituency, over 400 areas voted to leave. But recent polling from think tank More in Common has revealed that just a decade on, the number of constituencies who would now vote to stay out of the bloc has plummeted to 11. “In a referendum today, just 11 of Great Britain's 362 constituencies - excluding Northern Ireland - would vote to stay out,” executive director of More In Common, Luke Tryll said, adding all of them are in England. “Even in the most Eurosceptic seat, which would be South Basildon and East Thurrock, 48 per cent would vote to rejoin. “In Glasgow Northeast, which we think would now be the most pro-rejoin constituency, 87 per cent we estimate would vote to rejoin." The polling projects that 97 per cent of the seats that voted leave in 2016 would now return a majority for rejoining the EU. The study shows that the ten least pro-rejoin are mostly post-industrial or coastal English towns, and areas in which Reform UK is targeting. The 11 constituencies who would vote to stay out of the EU: - South Basildon and East Thurrock - Dagenham and Rainham - Castle Point - South Holland and The Deepings - Romford - Hornchurch and Upminster - Dudley - Bexleyheath and Crayford - Aldridge-Brownhills - Boston and Skegness - Rayleigh and Wickford Nearly half (48 per cent) of Britons say they would vote “rejoin” in a second referendum, while 28 percent would vote to stay outside, 12 per cent would not vote and 12 per cent don’t know. Even among those who voted Leave in 2016, nearly a fifth (18 per cent) say they would now vote to re-join. The poll also found that four in 10 Britons think leaving the EU has made their daily lives worse, while fewer than one in 10 say Brexit improved their lives. Sir Keir Starmer had put a “reset” of relations with the European Union at the heart of his premiership before he announced his resignation on Monday. A second EU-UK summit, set to take place in Brussels on July 22 to make progress on his reset with the bloc, has now been delayed as his likely successor Andy Burnham prepares to for power. Sir Keir previously vowed not to return to freedom of movement, a customs union, or the EU single market in what he billed as his ‘red lines’, but it is unclear what Mr Burnham’s approach to the UK’s relationship with the EU will be.
