ComRes & Brexit Attitudes.

The ComRes survey, commissioned by pro-Brexit campaigning group Brexit Express, focused on 12 constituencies which are home to MPs who voted Remain in the 2016 referendum, including Dominic Grieve's Beaconsfield and Nicky Morgan's Loughborough.

It suggests more than half of adults living in the constituencies polled – 53 percent – would consider voting for a political party with one single aim to put pressure on the main political parties to conclude Brexit “as quickly and fully as possible”.

Seventy percent of voters would switch vote in order to achieve the best Brexit outcome, while 83 percent of voters believe the Government stronger if they presented a united front

In addition, 63 percent say MPs should back manifesto commitment to take UK out of EU, while 60 percent of Tory voters felt their MP was wrong to vote to stay in the Customs Union.
Additionally, 70 percent, including 70 percent of those who voted Conservative in the 2017 general election, said they were prepared to vote for a party they would not otherwise vote for in order to achieve Brexit.

Meanwhile 31 percent of all voters, and 47 percent of Conservative voters, believed the Government should be prepared to walk away without a deal if the EU tries to force further concessions to Theresa May’s ‘Chequers’ proposal.

More than four in five voters living in the constituencies polled (83 percent) think the British Government will have more negotiating power over Brexit if the Conservative Party present a united front

This figure significantly increases amongst Conservative voters themselves (93 percent vs 71 percent of Labour voters). Express.
