'Brexit hasn't gone wrong': an advocate’s view of leaving the EU, 10 years on
ONP Summary
Ten years after the 2016 referendum, Britain's departure from the European Union has produced economic contraction and unfulfilled promises rather than the anticipated improvements. Public opinion has shifted decisively, with the majority now viewing the vote as wrong, while the political landscape has grown increasingly turbulent and nationalist, ironically amplifying the populist sentiments that originally drove the referendum.
Moderate: Centrist outlets emphasize the economic damage, failed campaign promises, and widening gap between expectations and reality. They highlight political instability, warn that similar populist movements threaten the European project, and note the original referendum relied on misinformation.
Conservative: Conservative-leaning outlets either defend the decision despite public disapproval or report the opinion shift more factually, generally resisting the centrist consensus that the vote was fundamentally mistaken.
