WOULD THEY VOTE THE SAME TODAY?

-

Alan Farnsworth, 78, a retired British

Rail worker from the Bartley

Green area of Birmingham, voted Leave and would vote the same today. He said: “I voted for Brexit, and I don’t regret it at all. It hasn’t changed much for me.”

Holly Gold, 23, a textile design student from

Derby, voted

Remain but is unsure how she would vote today. “Ending free movement is a big loss. I’m not so concerned about the economy but restrictio­ns like visas will be a big pain.”

Matthew Bryant,

44, has owned a stall selling different types of nuts in

Plymouth for the last seven years. He said:

“I voted for

Remain and I would still vote to remain. The main issue is getting my stock, as most of it comes from Ireland.”

Madeleine

Pritchett, 71, a retired carer from Walsall, voted Leave in

2016 and hasn’t changed her mind.

She said: “I voted to come out and I think we should see how it goes before rushing to judgment. Five years isn’t that long.”

James Peto,

44, who is unemployed and from

Bristol voted Leave.

He would still vote the same.“You just can’t control immigrants. It was an easy decision the whole time. The EU had far too much control over us.”

Harry Schotel,

23, an account manager from Bournemout­h, voted Remain and says he would still vote to stay in the

EU. “The Leave campaign was fuelled by xenophobia. I can’t see any other reason to vote Leave other than that.”

Tony Shipp, 60, runs a sweet stall in

Plymouth,

Devon. He said: “I did vote Leave and in truth I still would vote

Leave. Sometimes in life you have got to get on with it, and if you don’t like it what can you do.”

Helen Johns,

50, runs Fry’s

Farm Shop in Plymouth. She said: “I voted

Remain and I still would. This is mainly for travel reasons.

Our shop is entirely to promote local produce in Devon and Cornwall, but the main thing is I want to travel freely.”
