11% is a fairly significant win in my opinion .

As far as I'm concerned London may as well be another country altogether for what relevance it is to the rest of us but I take the point it isn't and the winning margin of 4% is the official winning margin .

What it does say is that the rest of england and wales are against remaining in the EU fairly significantly more than they are of staying in and that's something that cannot be ignored when people speak of second referendums and what have you .
50% of London is white English. So you would cut off your pure ancestral bulldog kinfolk would you?!

I'm proud to live in a multi cultural East London community. But I respect how people elsewhere feel, and their reasons for voting Leave. Because Leave got slightly more votes, then I am happy that we must leave the EU but as the vote was so close, I would argue that this should be by a soft Brexit with a deal that reflects the majority of all people via their MP representatives.
