== Primacy == |

This is certainly an interesting article, but is > 12,000 words. The ] states: |
|
|
|
|
|
:A page of about 10,000 words takes between 30 and 40 minutes to read at average speed, which is close to the attention span of most readers. Understanding of standard texts at average reading speed is around 65%. At 10,000 words it may be beneficial to move some sections to other articles and replace them with summaries per ]. |

This is presented early on in the article: |
|
|
"Following Brexit, EU law and the Court of Justice of the European Union no longer have primacy over British laws." |
|
|
|
|
|
|
The fact someone feels this needs to be asserted is troubling. The CJEU never had primacy over British law, and European Union law only had primacy as far as CJEU case law. The jurisdiction clauses in the treaty make this very clear, and supremacy is only a political assertion in a protocol. It really sounds like a childish understanding of the EU. The kind you would read in a British tabloid. I wonder if Misplaced Pages is supposed to be dumbed-down in this way? ] (]) 19:36, 2 March 2024 (UTC) |

== Adding new polling data == |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
== Regions and Cities voting Remain == |
|
I recently added information regarding polling in the Section "Public opinion since the Brexit referendum", (https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Brexit&oldid=1166454093) which was removed. I believe up to date polling numbers are an important addition to this article, especially considering that the poll in question had a differently worded question than the older poll. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
''"The electorate voted to leave the EU with a 51.9% share of the vote, with all regions of England and Wales except London voting in favour of Brexit"'' |
|
I would be happy for some feedback so I can come up with a revised edit. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is factually incorrect as Monmouthshire, Vale of Glamorgan, Gwynedd and Ceredigion voted remain as did several cities other than London. ] (]) 17:24, 24 June 2024 (UTC) |

::Thank your for your quick response. I added the aggregate poll on purpose because it is more representative than individual polls and the last survey cited was also an aggregate of six polls from the same source six months prior. |
|

::I could also add this poll instead (https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/brexit-poll-referendum-rejoin-eu-b2250813.html). It is included in the initial aggregate polling I cited, but was specifically cited by the Independent(^), the Express (https://www.express.co.uk/news/politics/1716280/poll-second-brexit-referendum-spt), Politico (https://www.politico.eu/article/britain-brexit-fail-new-poll-nigel-farage/ ) and the Economist (https://www.economist.com/graphic-detail/2023/07/19/brexit-was-wrong-say-57-of-british-voters). |

:::WinkingWikiWiking, the Express is deprecated, not a reliable source. The Economist is solid and could satisfy DeFacto's request for "mainstream reliable sources reporting it". --] (]) 20:15, 21 July 2023 (UTC) |
|
|
::I don't agree that it is undue of itself, it is factual and there is no reason to question the reliability of the source. It is not obvious what "mainstream reporting" could do other than attach an OpEd. |
|
|
::What is more of a concern is that the whole section ] is a muddle of two different ideas (a) was the UK right or wrong to leave? and (b) should the UK rejoin?: they need to be separated. (The three graphs in the first section dealt logically with the separate concepts but have not been updated since 2020. Two of those graphs should really have closed in June 2016. with just the right/wrong going forward.) |
|
|
::So perhaps the way forward is to contact the author of the original graphs to ask the right/wrong graph be updated and an additional graph created for rejoin. |

:::Yes, thank you that was very helpful. Especially your point regarding the confusion between the different sets of questions. |
|
|
:::I would suggest, that we add the polling sourced by mainstream media (citing the Economist, not the Express), if that's alright by @] and we can also bring in this graph here (https://commons.wikimedia.org/File:Opinion_polling_on_the_whether_the_United_Kingdom_should_rejoin_the_European_Union.svg), which gives a really great overview of up to date polls on the question how people would vote in a potential second referendum, so we get rid of some of the mess, you pointed out @]. I think that would be a decent start to overhauling this section of the article. |

:::::I have added the graph on the rejoin question for now. Unfortunately I don't have the technical know how to create a similar graph for the other question. But I could gather the polling data for that and create a table similar to the one used ]. I am not sure where we exactly this table should go though. The Brexit article seems long enough already, and ] one is specifically about the rejoin question, so it would not be ideal either... |
