Tbh I see the vote as a vote for democracy and self-determination. The immigrant question is secondary. The EU applies enormous political pressure all across the European continent and it's getting really uncomfortable, especially if the vast majority votes for something that is legally binding and your government can't act on it because of EU pressure (which happened here).
