Wrong.I’m not so sure, Labour are dead in Scotland and nearly won in 2017.
Ashcroft polled 12,000 people after the vote. Populus told us before the referendum who would be most likely to vote which way.So the 2000 or so Labour voters they polled tell us, but there again the polls indicated a remain vote in the referendum.
Now that is nail on head
It’s from 20 years ago and made me laugh but the language used is oddly familiar...
Some form of desperation to link if you dare to think being in the EU has been shit for the UK you're a racist, dream up the 1500 who voted for the BNP in the last election are in someway anything to do with over a million Scots who voted to leave the EU.Racism is an odd subject to bring up however feel free to have a special bonus point for making an irrelevant post just to support a point that hadn't been made.
Oooh not a full 12 thousand must be spot on then.Ashcroft polled 12,000 people after the vote. Populus told us before the referendum who would be most likely to vote which way.

They are still confused that labelling the opposition a bunch of racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, fascists didn’t win them the referendum.Some form of desperation to link if you dare to think being in the EU has been shit for the UK you're a racist, dream up the 1500 who voted for the BNP in the last election are in someway anything to do with over a million Scots who voted to leave the EU.
Oh no, have I hurt you at some point too?Give a like instead - Metal biker is not keen on clogging up the form with these types of praise.
You forgot thick.They are still confused that labelling the opposition a bunch of racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, fascists didn’t win them the referendum.
Probably because i’m thick... wait! what! lolYou forgot thick.

No, absolutely not.Are you saying people shouldn’t call other people out if they are, or say things that are, racist, sexist, homophobic etc.?
No it's right and proper to call the 1500 who voted for the BNP in the 2015 election out they most probably do hold those views, linking it to a million Scots or the 17.4 million British citizens who voted to leave the EU is frankly pathetic.Are you saying people shouldn’t call other people out if they are, or say things that are, racist, sexist, homophobic etc.?
TruthNo it's right and proper to call the 1500 who voted for the BNP in the 2015 election out they most probably do hold those views, linking it to a million Scots or the 17.4 million British citizens who voted to leave the EU is frankly pathetic.

Read though the thread mate.Did he do that? He asked
"Are you saying people shouldn’t call other people out if they are, or say things that are, racist, sexist, homophobic etc.?"
He didn't say that Scots or Leave voters were the ones that should be called that merely that anyone expressing racist, sexist, homophobic views should be called out. You linked the phrase to Scots and Leavers to be fair.
Here I'll help you out.to be honest it's absolute bollocks that demeans any argument.There again, there were more racist Leave voters than Scottish Leave voters. (Based on those willing to vote BNP in a general election.)
False reasoning again.Some form of desperation to link if you dare to think being in the EU has been shit for the UK you're a racist, dream up the 1500 who voted for the BNP in the last election are in someway anything to do with over a million Scots who voted to leave the EU.
You picked the one election the BNP got half a million votes in a nation wide vote less than two percent of the vote and nowhere near the over a million Scots 38% of the vote for leave, why not pick the nearest to the EU referendum of 1600 votes zero percent of the vote. Never ever has a vote for an overtly racist party got anywhere near the Scots leave vote.False reasoning again.
Half a million voted for the BNP in 2010, in fewer than half the constituencies. Obviously they stood more in places with more racists but the claim was made that Scottish leave voters got Leave across the line but (allowing for all the racists who didn't vote for an overtly racist party) I don't think it's desperate to say it's the racists what won it.
The Spectator even made light of it.
"One way of gauging the level of racism is to ask whether people in that country would object if a person of another race moved in next door. By that metric, Britain is one of the least racist countries in the world. Less than 5 per cent of Britons say they would object."
What was the winning margin?
Apart from one poster I don't think most Leavers on here would be in the 5%, but 5% is a lot of racists.
