Contributing sentiments towards policy:
59% : But also: Brexit was a terrible idea, which has never delivered any benefits, and unlike politicians, I'm not obliged to pretend it's not a terrible idea, and while I'm generally really dubious of trying to see collective intent in seven comedians competing for laughs, I think we got that one totally right.57% : That said, for balance, people also were really, really angry that we made jokes about Jeremy Corbyn and have regularly contacted me since to say I "have blood on my hands" (actual quote) for undermining the Labour leader, even though we were obliged by law to spend the same time talking about both parties in the run-up to the election; and, as you can see from Brexit, voters don't actually take their opinions from Mock the Week.
39% : And people were angry that it seemed to have only one opinion on Brexit; which is fair, because it pretty much did, and I spoke at length in a tour about how we could have better represented, for example, the sense of Brexit being for many people about sovereignty, and its importance for the English national psyche.
