Regretful Brexit backers lobby for another vote
Britons who have changed their minds since voting to leave the European Union in 2016 are among those uniting to call for another chance to reverse the decision.
These "Remainer now" voters, former Brexit supporters, are adding their voices to the chorus of calls for a second referendum amid political paralysis in Britain over the issue.
Gary Maylin, 38, from Norwich in eastern England, said he originally backed leaving the bloc after more than four decades of membership because he "wanted sovereignty for the UK".
He recalled facing a barrage of pro-Brexit sentiment at the time which influenced his choice.
"My MP was (pro-)Leave, all the arguments I heard were for Leave," he told AFP.
"So I decided the EU was to blame for a lot of the things that were going wrong - the inability of our government to control our destiny."
"Then I heard that we were going to leave the single market and custom unions so, again, I'm in shock," added the 28-year-old. "All the promises were broken."
