First round of Indicative Votes: J - Customs Union, 27 Mar 2019 [Clear]

Commitment to negotiate a permanent UK-wide customs union with the EU.


The Most Vulnerable Remain Supporting MPs

408 of the UK’s 650 constituencies voted leave on 23rd June 2016. That is nearly 2 / 3 of all Parliamentary constituencies in the UK voting to leave.
In 388 constituencies the leave vote exceeded the vote for the sitting MP.

This analysis shows which of the MPs that opposed Leave in the referendum are the most vulnerable if they oppose, or water down, Brexit.
