Contributing sentiments towards policy:

53% : Because of Brexit.
43% : "Now thanks to Brexit," Shapps boasted, snake-oil style, "we've been able to ditch the Vnuk law" (requiring car insurance to also cover ride-on lawnmowers and golf buggies).
43% : Next time Shapps bestrides a ride-on lawnmower to fib about Brexit and ride-on lawnmowers, he should do it as one of his made-up identities.
34% : On Monday, as Grant Shapps, he addressed Brexit Britain by video on the benefits of Brexit, while bestriding a ride-on lawnmower.
34% : Hopefully, this gave him some idea of the benefits of Brexit.
