Both in Remain Battersea and Leave Luton, considerable appetite for the Farage idea of a Second Referendum on Brexit - some frankly extraordinary voices speaking to our cameras this afternoon, compared to political debate...
from 56% Leave voting Luton...
Man who didn’t vote, expected Govt to understand, wants to vote Remain now
Woman backs “informed vote”
Guy voted in, says shd “get on with it”, but saying vote wd be v tight now
man saying people wd now vote to stay in, he’d definitely change vote

Of the others we had to cut from Luton, three Remain voters, all of whom wanted another referendum, said their Leave friends reconsidering, then there was this Leave voter market trader, who said prices shot up 30% after referendum but still for Leave
In Battersea, three voters, two identified as Remainers, other I deduced so - all backed another referendum - two were strongly Conservative voters too, not massively impressed with party handling of Brexit, expected it to change
What was surprising - we had expected overwhelming response to be “Brenda from Bristol” - style weariness - but hardly any of that... other thing is that it accords with the broad thrust of polling - that among referendum non-voters big swing now to Remain
Also underlying data on almost all the polls is that process is taking longer, is more complicated than had been expected and that the Government is handling it badly - also despite the effective “despite Brexit” attack mass of public clearly connect price rises to Brexit vote
EG, Overnight poll from Mirror/Comres has a majority against a second referendum, but if there was one, 55:45 Remain - but those numbers on lack of confidence in Government getting a good deal are now consistent across pollsters, weren’t there a year ago 
Latest YouGov too (though different yougov last month gave Leave 9 point lead) - has similarly 59% saying Govt handling negotiations badly, and all subgroups by age, party vote, social grade, region say net its fairly bad or very bad - Conservatives and over-65s the exception
