UKIPs driving policies are essentially leaving the EU, 'taking back Britain' and stopping immigration. You would think the out campaign heavily allies its views with UKIPS views.
That map is very interesting as well as the table in the above post:
Based on people that actually vote we are well and truly leaving the EU.
I'm not so sure. Yes, older people vote in numbers but so do people in the higher social groups.

^^ Your moral superiority is unfounded, just so you know. You remind me of some people I met whilst at University with similarly useless degrees.
I've been a DBA for a multinational oil and gas company based in France for the last 8 years, working in the industry for the previous 15 - I am well traveled, have a degree and I'll be voting out. I wish they'd get the vote out of the way, I don't think I can bare another 90 odd days of smugness from fresh out of Uni dross like yourself.

It's a shame your degree didn't include a tutorial on how to spot sarcasm.

Don't forget about all the people living/ working in the EU countries, about 1.3 mil. They will vote and I imagine pretty much all of them will vote to stay in.

In fairness he is right.
Source: did a BSc + MSc and the insanity was ridiculous. Especially so when they were so commited against free speech which they did not like.
I think the phrase is champagne socialism. Its great to #helpthepoormigrants/terrorists when it doesn't directly affect your middle class lifestyle.
Interestingly enough (I'll be putting a thread up on it soon), lots of middle class jobs are going abroad....
Globalisation/open borders only helps corporations and entities with no loyalty to anyone..

Absolutely love the hypocrisy and sweeping generalisations in here 
.
.To be fair you're not very good at it.
Combined with the geographic data from an earlier poll, I think it's safe to conclude that a significant portion of the support for 'Out' comes from bitter, old, middle-class people who live in the middle of bloody nowhere and are barely affected by the policies they so despise. Also known as Daily Mail readers
On a serious note, those are interesting figures. It seems the divide on Europe is quite pronounced between young and old, Liberal/Left and Conservative/Right. Whatever the result, a significant proportion of this country isn't going to be very happy. TBH the poll further cements my belief that the referendum was largely a bad idea. Whatever the result, it will help solidify the divides that are increasingly evident in our society.

Around where im from the majority of the reasoning for theout vote are the huge numbers of polish/eastern Europeans that have flooded the area. Been quite a lote of violence because of them (from both sides) latley too.
It seems the influx of migrants is welcomed in the big cities where the migrants fill all the service sector jobs but dont really compete for those office jobs that the people do so its not a major issue for them.
The more rural or industrial areas though the migrants are directly competing for the labour based jobs that the areas whole economy is based on. And so causes much more friction despite being lower numbers than the cities.

That teaches me to be tolerant... I thought you had some type of blindness and couldn't see to the left of the screen and didn't know your username is there!

I think a lot of it carries on from older style bords where there wasnt really much of a profile bit or the old email style ones
We have problems with crime and Eastern Europeans round here. Disgraceful TBH. They arrive faster than they can be jailed, so at present there is no end to the petty theft (purse snatching, pick pocketing) and organised crime.
It's the biggest tick in the 'Out' column for me. I think it's a disgrace that people are entitled to the 'right' of freedom of movement without needing to fulfil the 'responsibility' of abiding by their host country's laws. While it doesn't bother me as much, I have an similar opinion of people moving around the EU without a job or funds to support themselves.
I support freedom of movement, but the system is currently a joke.

I'd hope that people wouldn't equate uneducated with stupid. Sadly, going to university in this country still has as much to do with class as intelligence.

Absolutely. I recall an episode of benefits street a couple of years back where Romanians had moved into the street. They were running a scrap metal service. They had been caught taking things out of peoples gardens like kids bikes and bbq's that obviously weren't rubbish. They were also going through people rubbish bags to find anything of value to them. But not going through them and sealing them back up tidily, but just cutting the bags, pretty much emptying it into the street, rifling through and not clearing it up after. The binmen wouldn't clear it up, so it sat there, stinking and rat infested with kids playing round it. The cheeky gits were even having a pop at the landlord for not paying the gas and electric, despite his insistence that it is not included in the rent, which is pretty much normal for a private rental.
I know people will jump on me for using a programme like that as evidence, but it it did happen and it's happening all over the country. They need to learn you can't behave in this way. It's completely disrespectful to a country who are offering them an opportunity to better their lives.
What about all the Romanians who are all camping round Marble Arch and in lovely London parks. What the hell. No sorry, it can't go on like this. The country will be nothing but a pit if it does.
