How did you vote in the EU referrendum - and do you regret it?

Remain - and I now regret it.
Remain - and I don't regret it.
Leave - and I now regret it.
Leave - and I don't regret it.
Didn't vote - and I now regret not doing so.
Didn't vote - and I don't regret not doing so.

I was as clear as H H was in his post.

I'm sure he was inferring that there was something lacking between the ears of those that voted leave.

I don't think he was but it wasn't clear :-)

No, that is what you are inferring. I was merely replying to jeremyp's post by suggesting that many of his friends may have a similar background to him.

Having said that, I think that it is clear that many of the people who voted to leave did so because they had been fed hugely simplistic arguments by people leading the "leave" campaign. Some people of my acquaintance were swayed by the decision of Boris Johnson to support the leave campaign - they described him as being "very intelligent",

Ah Boris Johnson of the water melon smiling piccaninnies.

No racism in the Tory party. Nothing to see here. Move along please.

Didn't vote because I'm no longer resident in the UK but I would have voted leave.

Your contents of your post lives or dies on however you might chose to define simplistic, Boris has and is still, as far as I know, making a small fortune out of his journalistic career and the last I heard was he is much sought after in this field of his, and his bike scheme in central London is a success; no I'm not a particular fan of his, but like him or not he is no fool.

If he's not a (rich) fool, he does a good job of hiding it most of the time. However, he is definitely a liar - he's been sacked for it twice.

Of course it's not the likes of Johnson, Gove, and Farage, who will suffer from Brexit, it's the voters they lied to...

I used to think the bumbling fool bit was an act. Now I'm pretty sure it isn't. I cringe in embarrassment every time he as our representative to foreign countries opens his mouth

No indeed. The collapse in the pound has increased the real value of Nigel Farage's salary as an MEP which is paid in Euros.
