Whilst we can tar some of the leave voters with cloaked racism, a huge percent voted out because they were unhappy with an establishment who time and time again had blamed cuts to the working poor on ‘austerity’. Regardless of the protests against the harsh effects these cuts were having on the people of Britain, this government pushed on, whilst deliberately turning our class system into arch enemies. Personally I don’t think that was a clever vote but what it does tell me is, this was as much about bringing down the British government as it was about coming out of Europe. In many ways it was a revolution and revolutions only happen when there are enough people willing to stand up and say, “we aint taking this siht”. That was a hard lesson for our government to learn and that alone will change politics in our favor for decades to come. Why would we see evidence of anything yet? We are on the dawn of change and haven’t even signed Article 50.

The bulk of the people who voted leave are the very same people who would like to see any and all benefits stripped back as close to zero as possible. Let's not pretend otherwise. Britain out of the EU is going to be less balanced, and have a bigger wealth divide, than before. |

I agree, the tories had their wings clipped by the EU on many issues surrounding civil liberties, I expect those to disappear rapidly now.

Not only that but they have fresh justification. "We have to do this because YOU all chose to leave the EU so now YOU will have to accept he consequences... we have to cut: [huge list]"
