    One positive to come out of this referendum is that it's actually engaged those were previously completely apathetic. As you say, once the average working class Joe who voted out is scratching his balls wondering why his rent and ***s now cost more and that immigration has barely changed, then he might actually take the time the investigate the issues instead of listening to pricks like Boris.

    This poll was taken after the vote, so it's representative of whom and why people voted the way they did.

    A cusory glance at that poll tells me what I suspected. Only 6% of those who voted to leave concentrated on the issue that really matters, the economy. Whilst 33% actually admit that immigration was their reason.

    It's difficult to deal with ****wittery on that scale!

    So why is that any less important to them?

    most of the youngsters were denied a vote as they are under 18. no one with Alzheimers or dementia was denied a vote though.
    as for our 'sovereignty' that you amusingly think you returned, you didn't return jack, that was sold to America years ago

    As voting age is 18, they were not denied a vote.

    The poll is interesting, but the sample size is obviously too far too small to be
    able to extrapolate to the reality. Or like 2015, the polled have lied in significant
    numbers to the surveyors about how they truly voted.

    Because, Custard, the economy is far more important. Everything a country wants to do, in whatever sector, it all stems from how your country is performing economically. If your economy is not performing you don't have the money to spend on infrastructure of any sort. In fact, it usually means cuts.

    If a competent leader of the Labour party had been out here talking to voters, he would have explained that voting to leave wasn't going to make a lot of difference to immigration, and that all they were doing was voting to **** up their own economy and lifestyle. If only half those ****wits had listened!......

    But not to someone who has nothing or has to suffer his area massively changed to to mass immigration, that they never asked for.

    Its not all one sided, you must listen to them as well

    Like I say, leaving the EU will do very little to change the number of immigrants. And it certainly won't get rid of the ones that you are complaining about, they're not going anywhere.

    What it will do, however, is make sure they have even less than they have now. When the economy suffers, the rich don't. Everybody else does!...

    Maybe once they look at it, they'll call to set up controls on the financial market to stop them using situations for their own financial gain.

    As yet, nothing has changed. The situation was no more uncertain before the vote than it is now.

    So the Scottish, Northern Irish, higher educated and the employed voted in and the lesser educated and the unemployed voted out.

    Welcome to Chav England. Danny Dyer should run for PM.

    Do you think United should only have British players and a British manager?

    Boris has already confirmed he's not going to get rid of the ones who are here and more will still arrive. If your vote was based on immigration then you wasted your vote.

    Your problem is you voted for Nigel's policies but he can't implement them as he has about as much influence on government policy as the turd that my dog just did in the garden does.
