HMM: Tories Don’t Want Second Brexit Vote, But Many in Labour Do.

The overwhelming majority of members of Prime Minister Theresa May’s Conservative Party don’t want there to be a second referendum on Britain’s EU membership, according to a survey published Thursday. For the other main U.K. parties, the opposite is true.

Just 14 percent of Conservatives favor holding a second vote that might reverse Brexit, according to the YouGov survey of political party members for Queen Mary University of London. By contrast, the proportions for the opposition Labour, Scottish National and Liberal Democrat parties are 78 percent, 87 percent and 91 percent respectively.

Interesting that Britain’s most statist parties all follow the European tradition of wanted to hold just enough votes to produce the desired result.

Also interesting is that the Bloomberg headline reads “Tories Don’t Want Second Brexit Vote, But Many in Labour Do,” but the URL takes a harder slant. The text there says, “tories-don-t-want-second-brexit-vote-but-everyone-else-does.”
