Support for reversing Brexit has risen – and opposition has fallen – since Andy Burnham opened the door to Britain rejoining the European Union, according to a major new poll.

The Ipsos Mori survey found that 56 per cent of respondents now say they would vote in favour of becoming part of the EU again, up four percentage points on a similar poll in May.

At the same time, the number who back staying out has fallen three points to 30 per cent.
