"The University of Sussex research team surveyed more than 3,200 British expatriates immediately after the 2019 general election via the Britons Voting Abroad Facebook page, the EU-wide citizenship rights group British in Europe, its national sub-groups, and the three main parties abroad.
The survey showed a definite trend from EU-based expatriates away from the Conservatives who suffered a catastrophic drop in a share of the vote from a fifth in 2015 to a sixteenth in 2019.
The survey reveals that 95% of EU-based expatriates who voted in the 2016 referendum favoured Remain over Leave while three-quarters of EU based expatriates claimed Brexit definitely influenced their voting choice in 2019.
Many Remainers defected to Labour or the Liberal Democrats with fewer than one-fifth of Remainers who supported the Conservatives in 2015 voting for the party again in 2019."
I thought that might've let them off too but it was a Facebook survey. Are the actual Brexit voting figures available for Brits abroad?

Ah I was suckered in by "Sussex Uni" and skimmed past the Facebook data source... slightly more dubious now.
Read somewhere else that 80% of brits in the EU are of working age, think we can #debunk the little englisher brexit voter, down the cafe wearing a union jack stereotype.
Has it been established that costa del mongs voted for leave or is this based on the ones that the media pumped up and put in front of a camera.
This research seems to suggest oversea voters moved away from cons before and after brexit.
