There's an interesting poll out from YouGov for the BBC on Englishness. One question threw up answers that I didn't expect - was England better in the past, best now or will be better in the future?
For better in the past, you see 35% of remain voters saying yes against 64% of leave voters. What stood out though is that 20% of remain voters said the country will be better in the future
vs. 15% of leave voters. This is the opposite of what I would have expected.
