In your document I read "48% people think that immigration is one of the most important issues facing Britain, just ahead of the EU referendum". The Remain camp proposed to increase immigration.
48% voters for the Leave camp as a start, that's pretty pretty high! Plus whatever % they convince about leaving Europe for other reasons. Total 52%, I'm surprised the result isn't higher actually.
- aaronbrethorst 10y agoWhat's to say that Leave is going to be able to keep to their promises on immigration either?
- tajen 10y agoCredibility is another question entirely - Look, that's how democracy works. People vote, some are gullible in both parties, some have received fewer education, some newspapers will be biased until we mandate them to only publish information of the leading party, and, yes, politicians lie. It may not be the best system we have. But that's the best system at the exception of every other we know today. No-one gets to discard the results of a vote based on how they think things should go.
