Voters have changed their opinions about Brexit, but does it still matter to them? – By Adam Boulton (Sky News) / 12/10/23
An election will take place in the next 13 months, and Rishi Sunak and the Conservatives are trying to keep their 2019 voters by branding Sir Keir an EU lover.
Does Brexit matter anymore?
The UK’s decision to leave the European Union in 2016 has been the driving, and dividing, force in British politics ever since the referendum campaign.
It seeded the turmoil inside the Conservative Party, which led to five different prime ministers taking over in Number 10.
The public grew tired of all the delay and argument in parliament and handed Boris Johnson his “stonking” victory at the last general election thanks to his promise to “Get Brexit Done”.
That was one thing Mr Johnson did deliver, but it continued to bedevil his party as Rishi Sunak found out when he had to deliver the Windsor declaration under threat from Washington DC.
