I didn't call you anything, since that is the first time I even reply to you in this thread. And if you look back at my posts, you will find that I always said, it's a lot of different kinds of people with different motivations, making up the leave crowd. But what they mostly have in common is to be instrumentalised by snake oil vendors following their own agenda. And that agenda uses racism as part of their narrative, in order to present some seemingly easy solutions for complicated problems.
I don't think I replied to you, but if you think that 30 years of mistrust in the EU can be simply put down to political opportunists such as Farage, you're sadly mistaken.
The Maastrich treaty, coupled with the Euro and our failure to join meant that this vote was almost inevitable.
You may refer to me as "Oh High One."
