(Sharecast News) - Two‑thirds of EU citizens would support Britain rejoining the bloc, while most UK voters now say Brexit has damaged issues they care about and want closer ties, including forms of integration once seen as politically toxic, according to The Guardian. Polling by the European Council on Foreign Relations across 15 EU states found 66% of respondents viewed UK membership positively or neutrally, with support ranging from 56% in Bulgaria to 75% in the Netherlands and Denmark. Even voters for far‑right and Eurosceptic parties backed closer ties, including majorities of Poland's Confederation, Germany's AfD and France's National Rally. In the UK, polling conducted in May showed voters across party lines - including Reform UK supporters - believed Brexit had harmed the country and key policy areas.
