    “Overall support for staying in the European Union was slightly stronger in Scotland than it was in 2016 referendum. That ballot saw the UK as a whole narrowly vote to leave, despite 62% of voters north of the border backing remain. In the poll, 63% of people said they supported staying in the EU, with 37% opposed to this.”

    An increase of only 1% if that was reflected over the whole of the UK then it looks like a Peoples Vote would likely still not be enough...
    I was expecting a marked difference...

    Why? You've seen that no posters here have changed their minds, and having once made a decision, confirmation bias means people only see the evidence that supports their opinion. Also, the Express and certain other papers have been propagandising for Brexit nonstop, they don't care if it's bad for the country.

    And… the Guardian , the establishment , big business, the BOE etc have been spewing a massive remain message and the EU have been attempting to make things practically impossible for Britain in the hope of persuading us to leave. We have a flawed PM no doubt but she IS honouring the promise to deliver the will of the people.
