Uncontrolled Immigration was but one part of the reason people voted to leave.Also equating a desire for a country to have control of its borders to racism is just an ideological strawman to try and make us all believe that remain was the only ‘progressive’ way to vote.
Most people are’nt racist,Most leave voters aren’t racist.Racists are the minority.
He’s shot himself in the foot with the voters.

:clap1:

Actually we should be encouraging Vince to persuade some young voters to support the lib dems as that would eat in to Corbyn's vote share :laugh:

But I don't think all leave voters are like that

Bit of a contradiction here, no?

No...
' for some people in supporting Brexit was a desire to curb non-EU immigration,'

Some is not all.
