14 August Best for Britain has joined forces with HOPE not hate to produce the first full analysis of changing attitudes on Brexit at a constituency-by-constituency level in the UK. The analysis shows that over half of constituencies across England, Scotland and Wales would now vote to stay, a monumental shift in the sands of public opinion at a key point in the Brexit process. Modelling of the 632 seats in England, Scotland and Wales showed that in, 229 were and 403 were seats. Our analysis shows that public opinion in 112 seats has shifted and that there are now 341 seats with majority support, compared to 291 that are majority seats. The Multilevel Regression and Poststratification analysis was carried out by Focaldata, based on YouGov polling of a total of 15,000 people across June and July, before and after the Prime Minister s Chequers proposal. Best for Britain believes this analysis is one of the clearest signs yet that the British public want a chance to be heard, and are calling on Parliament to urgently legislate for the public to have the final say on the Brexit deal. The British are turning their backs on Brexit Our analysis of a poll of over 15,000 people, taken either side of the Government s Chequers deal, shows that if a new Referendum was held today 53% of the British public would vote to stay in the European Union as opposed to 47% who would still want to. 2017 Labour voters who voted in the EU Referendum are shifting dramatically. Our polling shows that only 71% of these voters would back in a new referendum, with the biggest movement occurring amongst poorer white working class voters. Other groups that are shifting most are young voters and BME voters, particularly Hindus and Muslims. Wales has seen a substantial change, with now leading by 55.1% to 44.9%, overturning a 53%/47% victory in the Referendum. In Rhondda, 60% of people voted in, but in another vote now, 50.4% would back. In Merthyr Tydfil, a 41.6% vote in rises to 51.3% now. In what could provoke a constitutional crisis, the voters of Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland now all back staying in the European Union. However, the shift in Labour voters is being partly offset by 2017 Conservative voters who backed in the EU Referendum. Only 78% of 2017 Conservative voters who voted to in the Referendum would vote the same way if there was a new vote, with 15% backing and 6% are now undecided. Overall, 69% of Tory supporters would back Brexit in a new poll, compared to 25% who would support. Using a method called Multi-level regression with poststratification (MRP), the consumer analytics company Focaldata, who were commissioned by HOPE not hate and Best for Britain, has estimated the constituency vote if there was another EU referendum today. The results are startling. page 3 of 15
14 August Voters in 112 parliamentary constituencies which backed in would now return majorities today. The new analysis suggests there are now 341 seats with majority support, up from 229 seats at the referendum a complete reversal of, when 403 constituencies backed. One seat has switched support in Scotland and 97 have switched in England, while an incredible 14 of the 40 seats in Wales have switched from to. Overall, the model puts on 53% support, with 47% backing. Yorkshire and South Wales have seen some of the biggest shifts. In Barnsley Central, where 31.6% of voters backed in, the figure has risen 17.2 points to 48.8%. In Swansea East a 12.8 point shift switches this seat from a majority in to 50.7% pro now. The vote goes up 14.3 points in Liverpool Walton, 13.7 points in both Stoke on-trent-south and West Ham. Other constituencies where the vote has gone up by double-digits include Rotherham, Thurrock, Grimsby, Stoke-on-Trent North and the Rhondda. Diane Abbott s constituency, Hackney North and Stoke Newington, is the most seat in the UK, with 82.5% of voters wanting to stay in the EU. The next most constituency is Jeremy Corbyn s Islington North, where 81.5% of voters want to stay in, up from 78.5% in. Over in West London, John McDonnell s Hayes & Harlington has flipped from to, with the vote now 12.5% higher than in. Whilst the vote has increased in virtually every Labour-held constituency, it has only marginally increased or even fallen back in some Conservative held seats, reflecting the move from to of Tory voters. However, Tory-held seats in London and the South East have become more, with Boris Johnson s Uxbridge constituency and Michael Gove s Surrey Heath seat both switching from to. Even in Jacob Rees-Mogg s seat of Somerset North East there has been a shift to of 3 points, making it now 51.1% in favour of. Over the coming days and weeks HOPE not hate and Best for Britain will release more information explaining why the shift in attitudes against Brexit is happening and who precisely is moving. We will also be explaining our campaign strategy to highlight how Brexit is failing the very people who voted for it in the belief that it would make their lives better. Opinion polls have been showing a shift in public attitudes towards Brexit for a few months, but the rate of change has quickened in recent weeks. A 5,000 sample poll, commissioned by HOPE not hate in February, found only a 2% lead for. Now it is slightly over 6%. More importantly though, our research graphically demonstrates where the switch is happening down to a constituency level and in the process it is going to pile the pressure on the Labour Party to move. page 4 of 15

14 August Best for Britain champions from across the political spectrum have come out in support of the research. Commenting, Dr Philip Lee MP said: I am not at all surprised by these results. They very much reflect the views that I have been hearing from residents and businesses in the Bracknell Constituency. This research is a reflection of the increasing realisation that the reality of Brexit Britain will not be the land of milk and honey that voters were promised by the campaign. Faced with the prospect of a disastrous No Deal Brexit or the Chequers Worst of Both Worlds Brexit, it s clear that most people prefer the bespoke deal we already have with the EU. It s not too late. The British people should have the final say. Brexit must be put back to the electorate in the form of a people s vote. David Lammy MP said: When a slim majority of Brits voted for Brexit more than two years ago, they were promised heaven. The reality they now have to deal with is hell. The pound is free-fall, our Prime Minister is an international laughing stock, and our government s negotiators are being made to look like fools. It s clear that the mood of the nation has changed. Many who voted in would now vote to. They see that our problems are the result of our incompetent government in Westminster, not decisions we make with our friends in Europe. With a majority of constituencies now in favour of ing in the EU, I call on my colleagues across the house to think about which side of history they want to be on. Do they want to be remembered for helping to deliver a catastrophic Brexit which impoverishes the country, or the side that gave the public a final say on the deal, with the right to stay in the EU and take a leading role in its future? Caroline Lucas MP said: The tide is turning across the country now that the reality of Brexit is becoming clear. We owe it to future generations to fight for their right to a final say on the Brexit deal. The establishment need to give people a real choice, including the right to build a better Britain within a reformed EU. Tom Brake MP said: This comprehensive analysis underlines the fact that public opinion is shifting. The mess the Government are making of Brexit, and the facts that are now emerging point towards the urgent need for a final say on the deal and a chance to exit from Brexit. page 6 of 15

14 August METHODOLOGY MRP is a statistical technique for estimating public opinion in small geographic areas or sub-groups using national opinion surveys. We have arrived at the new constituency estimates for / voters using a statistical method called Multi-level regression with poststratification (MRP), which has been undertaken for HOPE not hate and Best for Britain by Focaldata. MRP is a statistical technique for estimating public opinion in small geographic areas or subgroups using national opinion surveys. It originated in America, Columbia University to be precise, and was used by academics to estimate state-level opinion cheaply, given the expense of doing polls throughout the country. MRP has two main elements. The first is to use a survey to build a multi-level regression model that predicts opinion (or any quantity of interest) from certain variables, normally demographics. The second is to weight (post-stratify) your results by the relevant population frequency, to get population level (or constituency level) estimates. At the end of this process you get more accurate, more granular (thus more actionable) estimates of public opinion than traditional polling. There are however significant technical challenges to implementing it effectively. These include large data requirements, dedicated cloud computing resources, and an understanding of Bayesian statistics. It is far from a simple endeavour. Among the key features are: n Estimates of opinion at local geographic levels, e.g. constituencies n Estimates of opinion of precise demographic groups, e.g. young, women who are Asian, own their own house and drive a bicycle to work n More accurate estimates of opinion generally because MRP doesn t exacerbate problems of unrepresentative samples n Use of prior knowledge and old polls to improve accuracy and potentially cut sample size n Quicker decisions as new data automatically flows through models to campaigners Between 28 June and 6 July and 26 and 31 July, YouGov polled 15,340 people on behalf of HOPE not hate and Best for Britain with a range of questions about Brexit and other political and cultural issues and over the next few weeks we will be releasing more data. However, the key value in MRP is that it will help us be far more effective in our local campaigning. MRP helps us better understand who we need to speak to on any given issue, how we should speak to them and on what issues. The data will guide our door-to-door campaigning, but also but direct our online campaigning as we will be able to customise our messages to specific audiences far more effectively. page 15 of 15
