"Bregret" is real and growing, YouGov research shows.

In poll after poll the UK public says Brexit was the "wrong" decision.

LONDON — For nearly three years it has been one of the strongest, most consistent trends in UK politics, according to one of the country's leading pollsters.

Ever since the public voted to leave the European Union in June 2016, voters have increasingly regretted the decision. The more they learn about the details, consequences, and repercussions of divorcing from the EU and placing barriers in front of our largest, closest and richest trading partner, the more they regret Brexit, according to YouGov.

The margin of those who believe the decision was "wrong" is now eight to 10 percentage points — much larger than the margin in favour of Leave back in 2016.
