I am not accusing everyone who voted out of being racist btw, but a LOT of people voted on immigration only. When leave won my facebook feed erupted into a disgusting show of racism...I am about 40 'friends' down tbh as I don't want to see that ****.

Really? Or are the reports simply the sort of thing that goes on every day from the relatively small number of bigoted pigs who actually live in this country.

IMO yes, it is because of the vote.

Newcastle apparently had some kind of 'kick em all out' type rally thing today too

Racism will be more common now, or seem it. A lot of people are racist deep down but know better than to actually voice this. but now, I can't see those people holding back as sadly they think the out vote means their views are shared by half of the country...which I don't think (and hope isn't) true.

Of course those views aren't held by half the country. I very much doubt they are views held by many leaver voters, or remain voters come to that. Though unfortunately leave have all been branded raging racists.

That's not really true though, is it, and that sort of hyperbole is hardly helpful.

It's very likely that a significant portion of leave voters were fuelled by casual racism but no one is saying "all" or even "most" or "half". Just a significant portion.

Yeah these sorts of incidents happen every day so are obviously going to be magnified post-Brexit. Just depressing how many people thought voting Leave would mean the arab immigrants would go Haven't seen too many examples of EU country migrants being attacked... although my hometown has a strong Polish population and there's a definite sense of "please go home" from some...

And the illegals..apparently. Which is a bit daft, as if illegals are caught they are deported anyway (or I think they are...being...illegal?) so this again will make no difference to the amount of those we actually have either.

For 50 years, the people here where never given any say on how high the immigration numbers would be at, and to mps who want it at high numbers , only threw this problem to areas that people said no, high immigration kills integration, and today in towns, cities, and even on housing estates, no-go-area's are there, its not just here in britain, but in western europe its a big problem, in germany school girls who where attacked by refugees, where told by the police, too not say anything to the media, this is striaght out of the rotherham book, and merkel knew of the dangers, but stuck two fingers at her voters, when thatcher in 79 said that people fear that we are being swamped by people of a different culture or race, what she said was, listen and take note, nigel farage is doing the same thing, in working class area's, because both parties don't care, or listen to the problems that causes a racial divide, the brexit vote had many reasons, but some in the remain camp, want another vote because they think that having no borders, and not being a nation makes everything better,

but the free movement rules from the EU have only been in effect a relatively short time. For 40 years governments were in charge of immigration levels and people were still moaning about them then

Isn't it crackers these people who insist they are not influenced by the right wing media.....a year or so ago on this very forum it was insisted 'we need Eastern Europeans as they do the jobs people here won't do!' Now it's flipped 180 and suddenly we don't want immigrunts again.

Bennybobs claimants can do those jobs for £2 an hour.

Ah.... that makes sense actually, now they don't need to set up agencies to bring in cheap labour they can introduce mandatory work schemes for claimants and 'apprenticeships' for the yoofs even cheaper.

Why exploit foreigners when we have plenty of people here to exploit? I get it now.

Exactly what ISIS want. Soon the Muslim community will feel even more isolated then eventually give in more and more to Isis grooming.

Agreed. Some people so concerned with keeping people out of the country, that they don't give a second thought to the consequences of rejecting those who are already here.

Definitely allowing more racists to come out of the closet. Never saw anything like this in all the years I have been on there, the sheer amount of racism and ignorance is shocking.

well, the laws surrounding racism remain the same. They don't change, so if this brings racists out into the open where it can be dealt with, it can only be good.

I have no doubt that racists attached themselves to the brexit campaign, but one cannot lump everyone who voted out into the same category. So while it may seem like its made things worse, I think its just made it more obvious.

[joeysteele]

I am not on facebook.I hate it, however even my family are appalled at the tone and statements being made after this result.
Makes me near ashamed to be part of the UK.
