Yeah I wouldn't have bought that either.
The sentiment of "I'm an immigrant, but screw the other ones" was used effectively in some areas. They [leave campaign] admitted immigration won Brexit, and used it wherever they could.
Basically the Tories sold the line that EU immigrants have it better is "unfair".
But then people stopped thinking and didn't consider that maybe 1 - they lied (as you said) 2 - race to the bottom job for all of us...
PS: I would vote for a petting cat ;)
Priti Patel, the Conservative... MP?... told the trade organisation for curry houses that a vote for brexit was a vote against immigrants taking their jobs. Now those curry houses and restaurants are going to be paying a minimum of a grand a year per non-UK worker.
Really don't know how the Tories are going to get anyone to listen to them again. Maybe if they gave you a free kitten to hold while a Conservative MP talks at you? Like a cat cafe, or a petting zoo, but with an autoplaying MP telling you how free trade is great and socialism is just this season's fidget spinner
