53: Councillor Paul Gleeson on the real reasons why Boston is the most pro Leave area of the country

from Brexit Podcast · host Brexit Podcast

With less than a week to go before Article 50 is triggered, Labour councillor Paul Gleeson joined Tim to discuss the real factors that led to Boston being the most pro Leave borough in the United Kingdom. Paul explains how low wages and high rents have led to an uneasy atmosphere between an ageing local population and an increasing tide of exploited immigrants, leading to a huge 76 per cent voting for #Brexit in the EU Referendum.
