Brexit has completely failed for UK, say clear majority of Britons poll
LONDON The British public would vote by a sizable margin to rejoin the European Union if a new referendum was held, according to a nationwide poll.
The YouGov survey, carried out more than eight years after the U.K.s Brexit vote, finds public support for rejoining in a hypothetical new referendum stands at 59 percent, with 41 percent saying they would be against joining the EU.

Brexit has completely failed for UK, say clear majority of Britons poll
Just one in 10 believe leaving the EU has helped their personal financial situation, against 35% who say it has been bad for their finances, while just 9% say it has been good for the NHS, against 47% who say it has had a negative effect.-----(snip)------
Ominously for prime minister Rishi Sunak, who backed Brexit and claimed it would be economically beneficial, only 7% of people think it has helped keep down prices in UK shops, against 63% who think Brexit has been a factor in fuelling inflation and the cost of living crisis.
The poll suggests that seven and a half years on from the referendum the British public now regards Brexit as a failure. Just 22% of voters believe it has been good for the UK in general.

Trump will not impose tariffs. The stupid stuff he will do will not impact the economy.
