Tell me something, TS. Let's say that you are right that a lot of people voted for Leave because they don't like migrants.
What is your point? Does this mean the result of the referendum should be scrapped because it won for the wrong reasons? Or does it mean that while the results should honored and respected (and UK should leave the EU as soon as reasonable possible), there still are some internal racism issues that need to be addressed?
