"...since when did being more intelligent or more educated mean being more moral?"
Its all true; the Brexiters will feel even more moral than the puffed up effete educated elite when they bring back the rope.
As a general aside its always classic listening to folk on a site supposedly focused on the insidious and poisonous power of the media arguing; to paraphrase, that the horny handed sons of soil and factory are too canny to fall for for that shit and to suggest such is to be a raging member of the privileged class. the problem (Aside from it being a bit too romantic for me), isn't that a lot of them actually do: but simply that there are a lot, lot more of them. There's a sackload of working class Daily Mail "educated" Tories for every nimby bean reading the Gruniad.
Thatchers children: Brexit is her collective love gift to us.
