The British public no longer has faith in Theresa May to negotiate Brexit, with two in three saying they do not trust her to get the best possible deal, a Sky Data poll reveals. Some 64% of Britons do not trust her to run Brexit negotiations - up 31 percentage points from when we last asked the question in March 2017. Just 22% now trust her to get the best possible deal, down 32 points from last year, with 14% unsure. In March 2017, some 54% trusted her to get the best Brexit deal possible and just 33% did not trust her. This comes following the resignations of David Davis as Brexit secretary and Steve Baker as a junior Brexit minister - with fieldwork for the poll finishing just prior to the further resignation of Boris Johnson as foreign secretary. Just 30% of Britons think Theresa May is the best Conservative to lead Brexit negotiations, with 44% saying someone else within the party would be better suited, and 26% answered that they don't know. Britons are uncertain what the likeliest outcome is of Brexit on a day of government chaos. Those believing that there will be a deal of some sort agreed with the EU are effectively neck-and-neck with people who think there will be a Brexit with no deal agreed - 37% expect a deal, 34% expect Brexit to happen without a deal being agreed. Just over one in five - 22% - think the likeliest outcome is that Britain remains in the EU, while 7% say they don't know.
