I think a lot of this is ignored. If you look at the most deprived boroughs they pretty much all voted Leave. They're not all full of comfortable, retired home-owners (or if they do own a home it's worth £50k).
A lot of these people are still pro-Brexit, there hasn't been a seismic shift in opinion. If Brexit is overturned by a narrow margin (which looks like a possible scenario) but these people are ignored there are going to be a lot of very pissed off people.
There'd be a pretty good chance of UKIP getting enough seats to actually directly influence policy at the next election for instance.
