It's not the UK though, is it? You really mean engerland. Scots (62%), NI (56%) and Gibraltar (97%) voted remain in 2016 and that pro EU sentiment has increased since. In Wales too, I suspect. Not sure the EU would fancy a UK gov with Farage's reform party. We already have Orban to deal with.
The survey didn't specify who the Brits were, but it's quite possible that at least some who voted remain in Scot meant under the arrangement the UK had. Less so in NI/Gib prob, given their different situations
falklanders would have voted remain too, if given the chance.
if you're referring to the yougov poll in July, yes it did. Total GB support for re-joining the EU is now 54% according to that poll of 2005 adults in britain. Scotland 66% Wales 53% and england 54% ygo-assets-websites-editorial-emea.yougov.net/documents/In...
OK, but the bit you haven't highlighted in your screenshot is that even Scotland doesn't have a majority choosing EU membership with Euro and Schengen, only 48%. It doesn't change the fact that the majority of the UK – England, Wales & Scotland – only want to rejoin the EU with previous opt outs
that's not correct. It's britain - not the UK: NI was not included in the poll. Neither was Gibraltar who voted 97% remain in 2016. Don't forget that over 62% of Scots voted remain in 2016. Their only chance of that now is to go Independent. they would happily join the EURO. GBP£ has crashed.
England, Scotland and Wales are the majority of the UK, NI and Gibraltar are too small in terms of population. It doesn't matter how Scotland voted in 2016, the majority don't want to rejoin with the Euro and Schengen now.
The UK is a union of three countries and a region (NI), along with lots of overseas territories. Post brexit: - NI still in the EU SM for goods. - Gibraltar in EU CU & Schengen. - Scotland are leaning towards joining EU as an indy Scotland if NI completely leaves the Act of UK union 1801 ends.
Again, you are ignoring the fact that Scotland does not want to rejoin the EU if the Euro and Schengen are required. Look at your own link, the data is there
Oh I see what you mean. fair point. I see the gap between the 2016 remain (62%) vote and indyref1 (45%) leaning towards a YES indyref2 vote. In NI, we noticed brexit changed the conversation there. I think it's changed the conversation in Scotland too.👇
The U.K. is a single state. You don’t even understand the basics.
For what it's worth, you don't have to convince me that joining the EU fully is the right thing for the UK. I am a Brit living in the EU and think Brexit was the most idiotic thing a country has chosen to do to itself. It doesn't change the fact that the majority population of the UK doesn't want to
rejoin without opt-outs and I don't think the EU will, or should, agree to that.
the EU won't force anyone to join the EURO. Sweden joined the EU in 1995 and still uses the Swedish Krone. the UK cannot join schengen without Ireland's permission. As an aside, it's more likely NI will leave the UK to re-join Ireland, bringing an end to the United Kingdom (act of union 1801).
