So far it has been a shitshow, the only good reason to leave the union is because you want a more ““radical”” (I can’t find the right word, daring maybe) free trade policy to get super cheap goods, remarkably agricultural ones from the Americas - otherwise you’re just better of inside the EU. I found it hilarious when they were establishing the terms for the Northern Ireland/Republic of Ireland border, saying that NI could be in a privileged position having access to both the British Market and the European one… Which is just what you get when you’re inside the EU lmao. And if they wanted more independence they could’ve joined EFTA - but of course that was never the point

tl;dr:

Seven years after the Brexit referendum, the proportion of Britons who want to rejoin the EU has climbed to its highest levels since 2016, according to a new survey. Data from YouGov’s latest Brexit tracker survey found that, excluding those who said they would not vote or did not know, 58.2% of people in Britain would now vote to rejoin. The percentage is only fractionally down on the 60% recorded in February this year - the highest figure since comparable data began in February 2012 - and has risen more or less consistently since a post-referendum low of 47% in early 2021. A record proportion of respondents in Britain also think other countries are now unlikely to follow its example and leave the EU in the next decade - 42% said it was unlikely, up from 26% three years ago, while 40% said it was likely, down from 58%. EU member states showed a similar trend, with 45% of respondents in France saying they thought another EU-exit was likely, compared to 55% in February 2020. In Germany the figures were 36% and in Denmark 29%. While sentiment towards EU membership has shifted significantly in Britain since the referendum, a slim majority of respondents say they still think it is unlikely Britain will rejoin the EU at some future point in the future.

I am a bot in training. Suggestions?

it’s not like it’s going to start going down as the older generation who votes for the mess die off.

So -8% at start, +8% at end. Surprisingly close still.
