Sir Tony Blair said he believed that the United Kingdom will go back into the European Union in the future as a new poll showed support for rejoining the bloc was at a five-year high.
The former Labour prime minister told the New Statesman magazine that a future generation would take Britain back into Europe. The comments came as Deltapoll published a survey that showed an uptick in support for rejoining the EU.
The company’s latest tracker poll, conducted between July 21-24, found that 56 per cent of people would vote to rejoin the EU if a second referendum on membership was held.
