> that attitude is what pushed people to vote leave

People thinking that the Leave camp was xenophobic pushed Britains to vote Leave?




Correct, after all had too much from the so called left wing just dismissing the people's concerns via just labeling and dismissing the people and ignoring the concerns.

After all when has picking out the few individuals and projecting that upon the many ever worked out well? As that is discrimination and too what agenda. To project the migrational bias for Europeans at the expense of allowing people from other countries to come to the UK. That if anything is more xenophobic and discriminatory in nature than the leave side and sadly seems more common with those who wanted to remain.

But been way to much name calling by pro-EU groups and indeed the EU leaders themselves over the years and to what effect. Highlighting they are not only out of touch with the people but happily ignore them.

how else can one explain why as a European I have yet to find one person in favour of TTIP and that alone indicates the EU listerns to corporations and ignores the people more than anything and that needs to change, to reform and improve.

The EU now has an opportunity to improve itself for the betterment of the people or it can carry on with its model of alienating the people it supposedly serves.


Establishment people assuming this was the reason.
