A More in Common poll of 440 Britons aged 18-28 found that 60 percent would vote to rejoin the EU and 50 percent describe Brexit as a failure. Among likely voters in the age group, support for rejoining reached 81 percent. Britain's economy is smaller than it would have been had the country remained in the EU, according to economic analyses.
The poll shows Gen Z rejection of Brexit as a right-wing project that reduced trade and investment, leaving the economy smaller and harming youth opportunity.
