The Guardian seeks public reflection on Brexit decade after referendum
As the tenth anniversary of the 2016 vote to leave the European Union nears, The Guardian is launching an initiative to gather public sentiment on the decision and its long-term impact.
The Guardian has initiated a call for public submissions to mark the upcoming tenth anniversary of the 2016 Brexit referendum. The publication is inviting members of the public across the United Kingdom to provide their views on the decision to leave the European Union, aiming to capture a broad spectrum of experiences over the past decade.
The initiative seeks to understand how individuals voted in 2016, their current feelings regarding the outcome, and whether their perspectives have shifted since the vote. The outlet is specifically interested in hearing from those who voted to leave, those who voted to remain, as well as individuals who did not vote at all.
Responses are being collected via an online form, which remains open for submissions. The Guardian is asking participants to reflect on whether their views have changed over the ten-year period and how their personal experiences since the referendum have influenced their current stance on the issue.
The call for submissions comes as the UK approaches the milestone anniversary of the vote held on 23 June 2016. The publication stated it is interested in hearing from people with a wide range of views and experiences, noting that the collected perspectives will offer insight into how the decision has been perceived over time.
Participants are directed to the publication’s website to share their views, with links provided to the terms of service and privacy policy. The Guardian has indicated that it is seeking to understand the evolution of public opinion as the country marks ten years since the vote to exit the European Union.
