Poll suggests 1 in 6 British adults think life will never return to ‘normal’

New figures from the Office of National Statistics (ONS) found that 1 in 6 British adults think life will never return to “normal” of the pre-Covid world.

This is the highest chunk of the adult population found to express this view since the advent of the virus.

The ONS opinions and lifestyle survey, the fieldwork for which was completed between 18 and 28 November this year, concluded that 16% of adults thought life will never return to normal.

Just 11% shared this view between 20 and 31 October.
