Brexit polling: beyond the numbers

15/02/2023, 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm

A Grassroots for Europe Webinar

Over the course of 2022, opinion polls have recorded a steady increase in anti-brexit sentiment. But the numbers for and against vary according to the wording of the question, and the polls require interpretation. This webinar brings together three experts to discuss how to interpret the polling data, and the implications for pro-EU campaigning:-

  • Richard Bentall is a professor of clinical psychology, who will explain the psychology behind the response to different polling questions (Brexit going badly; Brexit wrong; greater alignment; rejoin EU).
  • Peter Kellner, who is past president of YouGov, will consider the implications of recent polling for Labour party policy, and how to bring them to bear on the party leadership.
  • Flo Hutchings, Political Director at Best for Britain, will explain the novel technique of MRP polling and how it might be applied to EU-related issues to inform the strategies of local campaign groups.

The session aims to develop a greater awareness of the meaning of polling data and how to use the data in pro-EU campaigning.
