This statistic shows results from an online survey conducted in Great Britain in November 2016 on the perceived positive impacts of the British exit from EU membership. The most popular beliefs among respondents were that there will be a reduction of immigration after Brexit and an increased freedom of trade with countries outside the EU. By contrast, only 2 percent of those surveyed thought that groceries will become cheaper.
