LETTER: Those who voted for Brexit are shifting position

My experience, since the referendum, is of hearing many people who voted ‘out’ shifting their position, whilst not once have I heard Remainers wishing they had voted out.

Given that we are now in possession of a much more accurate picture of the costs of exiting the EU, including the unspoken of difficulties surrounding the Irish border, I can only believe that the balance of rational opinion would shift towards our remaining in the EU, rather than opting to become a global non-entity.

This would reflect the sentiment in Parliament, underlining the fact that we are a parliamentary democracy having elected informed people to make difficult decisions on our behalf.
