/// Who`s to say its not rabid remainers trying to tar brexiteers in a bad light - the way they have acted during and since the campaign I wouldnt put it past them. ///
Exactly, it seems strange that when something is finally being done regarding the vast immigration rate into the UK, there would be some who have just gained a certain amount of success by coming out of the EU, to now take this opportunity to vent their joy, by harassing the immigrants we now have.
Wouldn't it be more feasible into suspecting the poor losers, taking into account the constant labelling by them of being racist if one voted to leave the EU?

No, not another scare story at all AOG, if the following can happen ::

This is about as racist as it gets, attacks like these have mushroomed in the last few days. Committed by a small minority perhaps, although that won't be much commiseration to the people affected.
I don't want to stifle debate on AB but if you had done just a little research, before you posted AOG, perhaps you might have posted at all.

I don't see why it should matter if it's the minority of people who voted for Brexit who are also racist enjoying a misguided sense of endorsement for their disgusting attitudes, or some sort of conspiratorial group of (also minority) Remain voters determined to slander the winning side. The attacks are totally unacceptable, and have to stop, and frankly that's the only message we should be sending.

So, what do you think the real story is?

I did not deny that certain racist incidents have not taken place, just as they always have, but if you had read my question properly without an instant need to have a dig at me, you would have seen my concern over this is the fact that poor losers, can and will get up to all kind of tricks so as to put their victorious opponents into disrepute.

/// I'm not sure why you think it's so unreasonable that at least part of the rise is down to people feeling that the recent result provides some (albeit misguided) justification for airing their racist views. ///
Did I ever say that I thought that?
But then let me turn this on it's head,
I'm not sure why you think it's so unreasonable at least part of the rise is down to people feeling that the recent result provides some (albeit misguided) justification for an attempt in their rage, at discrediting their winning opponents.
