    If a generic rule applied that could define every single individual nation state in Europe, (or even a majority), individually as a 'race' e.g "the Bulgarian race' or the 'Dutch race', or the 'Scottish race', then you could argue that British leave voters were being racist, although it still doesn't stand up in a court of law. Unless of course you would like to imply or give criminal records to seventeen million voters who were asked to vote on this referendum in the first place. You tell me how many Nation European states define their own racial identity, (do they actually have one?), as a"race' then you might have a decent argument.

    Unfortunately when The British, (Colonial bastards that we are), decided to walk away from 28 neighbouring countries or whatever it was, to leave the European institution, (ironically leaving behind other European colonialists in the process), including The French, and the infamous world renowned former fascist state Germany, this cannot be deemed as racism by any sane definition of law. I couldn't care less what way this all goes now. Stay, remain, remain, leave or whatever, but you should really stick to Drone's argument about finding a legal way of making the referendum void if you want to win the argument, instead of this racism point. If a British voter in the 21st century cannot look at the impact of mass migration on his or her population, in a 'once in a lifetime vote' without being labelled a racist, then the only case to answer is slander for people calling other people racist.

    It is wrong to suggest that all Leave voters are/were racist. It's equally wrong to suggest they are/were all anti-immigration.

    Two of my brothers voted Leave, both for different reasons; none had anything to do either with racism or immigration. Their reasons were entirely economic but I reckon for every economic reason they put forward for leaving it would be possible to put forward at least one counter-argument for remaining.

    I love them no less for their choice and I acknowledge both are vastly more intelligent than me so they may well be right. As far as they are concerned their reasons are as sound as anyone's for remaining. But I still disagree with them.

    I do believe a vast majority of the Leave voters did so on the basis of a campaign predicated on lies, fear and loathing.

    I believe that restrictions could have been put on immigration but the then Home Secretary didn't do so; can someone please correct me on this if I am wrong??

    You're so wrapped up in your warped agenda that you don't think other people live in multicultural areas, and that you're the only one that knows what they're talking about. Hilarious!!!

    Perhaps it's because all the bad ones read all the shite you spout on here and then come to live by you just to take the p*ss, whereas the decent folk move to where the rest of us are.

    I'd imagine your poor neighbours have a different viewpoint, that is of course unless they are all backward neanderthals as well.

    I'm back here now, but I would be fairly confident that next time it goes to a vote they'll leave the Commonwealth. Of course when I was there people thought I was a filthy immigrant!

    The UK has always had the ability to repatriate EU citizens who were unable to find work, in order that they did not become a burden......but no UK Government (Labour, Tory or Coalition) chose to police it - presumably because they didn’t think it was worth the money or the effort.

    Unfortunately, such fecklessness opened the door for the odious racist Farage, and breathed life into eejits like ozgood, who are only happy to buy UKIP’s misleading horse-sh*it by the bucket-load, because it gives them a convenient scape-goat........despite the fact that ozgood’s real issue appears to be with non-whites i.e. the people who will replace Europeans in droves, when we’re forced to sign bad trade deals, just to stay afloat.

    Why would that matter - you've just admitted that you don't live in a multicultural nirvana either - but you're allowed an opinion on them all the same.

    Ozgood man, what your typing is blatantly racist, you want a war between 'left' and 'right', which your beloved 'Britain' doesn't actually need.

    If you hate London f*ck off out, like many people before and after you have ******* done.

    If we could travel in a time warp back to the 60's or even before that, with the state your in, you'd probably be the one shooting Martin Luther King.

    I'm out of here. This is affecting my sanity.

    Peace and love to one and all.

    When I win the TTF comp donate the lot to Mind please.
