There isn't a very high bar to understanding that immigration from "the thirld world" had nothing to do with the EU.

As an immigrant to the UK, I was very acutely aware of the sentiment leading up to, during and after the referendum, but I was mortified by the ignorance displayed by people around the topic.

I'm from one of those third world countries by the way.
