No regrets over vote
The vast majority of “Brexit” voters were from a poor, low paid, or unemployed background, you know, the people Labour supposedly stand up for, but increasingly ignored and sneered at.
Among these voters the primary concern wasn’t immigration but the desire to be governed by those people who we’ve elected to represent us in Westminster rather than the unelected, faceless politicians and bureaucrats ruling the roost in Brussels.

As for some of the ridiculous claims about the benefits of having a large migrant workforce, is anyone actually concerned about what happened to our own plumbers, joiners, gas engineers or the fact that we restrict the numbers of our own young people who want to train in the field of medicine?
I certainly hope our Commonwealth partners will forgive the fact that we stabbed them in the back in 1973 and allow us to trade freely with them once again.
Thankfully, the signs have been positive so far.
