In a YouGov poll from early 2017 ‘Leave’ voters were asked what they wanted brought back after Brexit. The top answer was hanging. To listen to Iggy, you could be forgiven for believing that the return of Britain's status as a manufacturing nation was at the top of their list. Turns out, they were more nostalgic for the short drop. eastangliabylines.co.uk/whos-afraid-of-freedom-of-movement/

Who’s afraid of freedom of movement? The article asks. I say Brexiteers, particularly, Brexit fundamentalists.
While the article seemingly attempts to minimise immigration as a central factor in the referendum to the extent of claiming that "EU freedom of movement has consistently been very popular in the UK as a whole;" it doesn't seem to take into consideration that FOM was always going to be a deal breaker since the very idea of FOM was (still is) in conflict with the fundamentals of Brexit -- control, sovereignty, independence, rule-making-rule-taking issues, and other EU-hate ideologies that Brexiteers fully embrace.

Seeing freedom of movement as a negative is only another way of saying " we want a white western population with the accepted accents."
Like the constantly repeated government "humanitarian" expkanation that the channel boats must stop because we dont want people to die by drowning. Subtext...we dont care if they are tortured or killed in their own homes. What FOM and Stop the Boats are is an acceptable expression of xenophobia and racism heavily cloaked in moral righteousness.
BTW a small point. From Jan 2024 citizens of the UK will need an ETIAS visa to go to the EU or the USA.
If you are against FOM you will be delighted.

By far the most EU migrants were white East Europeans . White Eastern Europeans tend not to like black people. Another false claim that Brexit was based on racism…yawn.

The general attitude in the UK was and still is against the French, critical of the Germans, Spain is for holidays and Italy is full of idiots. all Bulgarians and Hungarians were dangerous crooks and Poles were only good enough to pull carrots. The UK had very little knowledge of any other EU member, other than that they werent British. Hence the xenophobia i mentioned. The racism refers to the boats.

Only in the world that frustrated lefties construct between their ears to justify their failure .

Exactly it's the Europhiles who are racists. Now skilled Black, Asian and Ethnic Minority migrants are coming and taking well paid jobs, they hate it. They are the racists.

Well so many xenophobes apparently,boat people?and according to Andrew hope many more come to cook the gammons last meal ,that’s ok but wait till all you hold dear your ideals,your freedoms and not having all those nasty brexiteers telling you what’s what.
And forget hanging (and no I don’t believe in hanging people) you’ll have the delights of stoning,maybe beheading in public.
Forget men in dresses they’ll be executed and corporal punishment ha public flogging,still better than not being in the eu eh?
Might not be in soon but it will come,people need to be integrated in to our way of life and not the reverse, and the arrogance of calling them all gammons,try asking those of West Indian origin if they’re happy (I have) you might be surprised with their answer. Still I don’t see it your way so I must be a racist/gammon/stupid.
