What is Bregret?
Do you really know? 
About this episode
It’s been just over three years since Brexit came into effect and the latest YouGov poll from late February 2023 suggests that 53% of Brits now think it was wrong for the UK to leave the EU. The infamous 2016 Brexit referendum exposed deep divisions within British society, which have only deepened since. Three prime ministers have come and gone since, and current PM Rishi Sunak is facing an unprecedented crisis, with the UK seemingly on the brink of economic and social implosion. Now Brexit is of course a portmanteau term in itself, which has led people to create other neologisms around the subject, including “Bregret”, a combination of Brexit and “regret”. What does the population think of Brexit in 2023? What are the economic consequences of Brexit so far? How can the United Kingdom get back on track? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
