Would be a bad idea for parliament to ignore the wishes of the people tho wouldnt it.. and yes there were those who must have or allegedly must have voted leave because of the immigration issue.. I dont believe that is necessarily always about bigotry or racism.. I think people need to realise the sheer numbers we have here and that it isn't just one group.. we have Europeans, esp romanian and Polish and we also have African, Asian, etc.. so just because someone expresses concern about the immigration issue doesnt mean they are racist or against any individual or group.. it's just the sheer numbers and the fact that that does have economic implications too from benefits and welfare to natives finding it hard to get work..to housing to schooling.. and education...
But it is also true that others voted for leave for many and varied reasons other than immigration.. the fact that one million more voted leave than stay says something..and we cannot just claim all those were racists :P
