A lot has happened since the seismic referendum which made this possible and an awful lot still remains unknown.

As the referendum itself showed though, the UK is a divided nation when it comes to Brexit. The second most common response was ‘pleased’, followed by ‘relieved’. Irrespective of how the public now feels, come April 2019 the UK will not be a member of the European Union.
This chart shows the words most used to describe feelings about the commencing of the UK leaving the EU.
