Only one in 10 feel leaving the EU has helped their finances, while just 9% say it has benefited the NHS, despite £350m a week pledge according to new poll
A clear majority of the British public now believes Brexit has been bad for the UK economy, has driven up prices in shops, and has hampered government attempts to control immigration, according to a poll by Opinium to mark the third anniversary of the UK leaving the EU single market and customs union.
The survey of more than 2,000 UK voters also finds strikingly low numbers of people who believe that Brexit has benefited them or the country.
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.
Let me know what you think I wrote that was objectively incorrect. I get the feeling most people reading this thread and following the downvotes think I’m claiming the USA national parks were solely created by conservative, which I didn’t. I wanted to point at that conservative ideas was what started what later gave birth to national parks as we know them, and not only in the USA. Maybe some national parks locations we know today wouldn’t exist if it hadn’t been protected for conservative reasons initially. Note also, that I used the word maybe, from the beginning, because it’s certainly not the only reason they exist today. I admit guilt to use a short, surprising sentence without further explanation to raise questions, but it seems almost all reactions got negatively oriented from there because of how touchy politics is here, especially if it doesn’t follow the left main stream. This saddens me because with the default ranking system, this interesting thread got buried, and fewer people could read it.
I appreciate your persistence in explanation, your point became more clear.
