  • whether there are signs that the passion and emotion that were widely in evidence on both sides during the Brexit debate have begun to dissipate.
  • whether or not the disagreements between the two groups of voters over what Brexit will and should bring have begun to fade.
  • the link between people’s views about Brexit and their party preference and the implications of our findings for the party political battle.
