Brexit

The Price Conservatives Are Willing To Pay For Brexit

Much of the UK's Conservative Party is ready to do whatever it takes to secure Brexit, even if that means destroying their own party or tearing the country apart. Unfathomably, a YouGov poll found that 63 percent of Conservative Party members would rather Brexit took place, even if it resulted in Scotland leaving the United Kingdom. Similarly, 59 percent would still prefer to secure Brexit if it resulted in Northern Ireland leaving the Union.

The poll's findings do not stop there - 61 percent of the 892 party members surveyed would still prefer to have Brexit even if it caused significant damage to the UK's economy while 54 percent would accept a divorce with Europe if it destroyed the party. The Tories are dedicated to keeping Jeremy Corbyn out of No. 10 though and a 51 percent majority would not accept Brexit in order to stop him becoming prime minister.
