Revealed: the truth about the People’s Vote’s Leave voter

Last week, Mr S pointed out that many (possibly all) of the celebrities who featured on a People’s Vote video pushing for a second Brexit referendum, had in fact not changed their minds’ about Brexit, but voted Remain all along.

And it seems as though Mr Steerpike’s article has touched a nerve. In order to prove that they are not solely made up of malcontent Remainers, the People’s Vote released another video this morning, casting a light on those who had voted Leave in 2016 and have now switched sides.

But while the last video featured dozens of celebrities, stars, and ordinary folk now saying they backed a second vote, Mr S is sad to say the movement could only find one person in their ranks who voted Leave in the referendum: Hugh, Remainer Now:

Only Hugh, is not exactly your typical Brexit voter found on the street.
