A recent study by the Policy Institute at King’s College London reveals a dramatic shift in British public opinion, with 53% of respondents preferring to prioritize Europe over the US. This contrasts sharply with views from 1967 when 53% favored America. The change is partly attributed to concerns surrounding President Trump's presidency and the evolving relationship between the UK and the EU. Additionally, The Independent emphasizes its dedication to unbiased journalism, funding through donations to keep quality reporting accessible to all, without paywalls.
Professor Bobby Duffy, director of KCL's Policy Institute, highlighted the significant shift in British public opinion, noting that fears surrounding President Trump have influenced support towards Europe.
