The problem with the referendum is that neither side will get what

of the NHS or any of the other promises made by people that
couldn't deliver them. So yes, a lot were tricked into voting one
way.

I'd say there's little doubt that the vote was won by those whose aim
was to end immigration. And give the government a good kicking. They

certainly wasn't why I voted as I did.

Didn't say you did. Given the small percentage majority, it didn't need
that many to whom immigration was the primary issue to swing the vote.

I take it you never watched TV? In those areas where there was a large
majority to leave, the most common topic by far was immigration.

Strange wasn't it I wonder why the don't want immigration or want to reduce it.


Many of those who 'don't want immigration (and voted Leave because of
it) simply don't want 'foreigners' in *their* country.

and many more wanted immigration controlled.


What they don't
understand is that it isn't *their* country it's *our* country and
there many of us who are far more open minded / and happy to mix with
other cultures.

I agree but there are some that don't agree with every culture that is present in the UK, and don't want to have to follow that culture.



The next layer of people don't mind *some* 'foreigners' but they don't
like others (or various nationalities or even colours, even if they
were actually born in England).

You also have to realise that some don't like the culture or the way the person acts behaves and that is down to culture rather than colour, but like with wasps bees and other animals sometiome the colour or dress indicates the type of person you are. So you need to be able to tell these people apart.
