- kalleboo 10y agoI thought they were pretty heavily against EU migrants from poorer nations as well? At least that's been UKIP's position.
- ZeroGravitas 10y agoIt's all a bit confused, but the rhetoric is basically against all immigrants, with eastern Europeans being one particularly targeted group in the context of Brexit. But it's complex. People were asked by the media which way they would vote and why. Asians were saying they'd been promised more immigration from their country by the Leave campaign, while other people were saying they'd vote Leave because there were too many Africans living in their street. The thought of Turkey joining, and letting in Syrian refugees was also in the mix. And one of the intellectual leaders of Leave has already stated he's confused why people think voting Leave will reduce immigration.
