Centre for London Brexit survey

Survey of 1,000 Londoners on behalf of Centre for London on the prospects for the capital after Brexit.

• Half (52 per cent) say that Brexit will have a negative impact on London’s economic growth until 2020 – a figure that rises to 68 per cent amongst young Londoners aged 18-24.
• 41 per cent of Londoners feel distant from the rest of the UK in the wake of Brexit.
• Over one in three (37 per cent) feel that negative perceptions of London from the rest of the UK are holding the capital back.
• Half (51 per cent) of Londoners think that the EU referendum has had a negative impact on social cohesion in London.
