Would you vote to re-join the EU in another referendum?

Simple question. If there is another referendum to re-join the EU, will you be voting to re-join?

This isn't to have a go at anyone who supported Brexit, or who supported Remain, it's just a quick straw poll. Thank you. Smile

If anyone is wondering, (or cares!) I think I will vote to re-join. (I won't say at this point what I voted for last time...)

The Brexiteers need to chill. The EU wouldn't have us back. We don't meet the criteria.

Maybe its remainers who need to since its those people who cannot seem to accept the decision and move on. Instead they keep trying to take us back in.

Maybe its not such a bad thing to get our economy strong enough so it's an option.

Its been 10 years since the vote. Democracy allows for people to make different decisions as time goes on. It doesn't bind us to a single election that happened a decade ago.

And as any informed person said ‘WHAT?! If you didn’t vote in the EU elections that’s on you not the rest of us’.
Every single EU rep is elected, in similar ways to here in the UK.
You didn’t directly vote Burnham to be PM but people voted to elect him as MP
You didn’t vote Badenoch as leader of the Tories, but she is, and could be PM one day.
Believing mis-information isn’t an excuse for propagating it. Please do some homework.

Thank you for that. In return I’ll just offer you this. Back in the glorious days of our EU membership the vast majority of those eligible to vote didn’t bother to turn out. And probably like yourself back in those halcyon days, if they’d been asked to name their MEP or explain what their European rep. did and how they did it - the response would have been a blank stare. Stirred your memory ..?
