Really ?

Backs up what I have said for years.

You should have a certain level of education or IQ to be able to vote.

Do Labour still have a policy for letting 16 year olds and prisoners be able to vote?

Also found in the article:

"Approximately 36% of leave voters were determined to have a higher cognitive ability than the average remain voter, the study also found."

[jourdain2]

More of the population voted 'Leave' than 'Remain', therefore it should be expected that, given  the normal spread of IQ, there will be more of Leave voters in every category.  Non-story.

Which still doesn't give you the right to be abusive towards leave voters.

Research comfirms remainers are cry babies who will scweam and sweam and spout any old ***.

Are we in Lilliput? Are you a big ender or a little ender?

..And Brexiters are awful winners. They crow and brag that they won and that's that, and that the British people spoke and won a resounding victory and those who lost are traitors and moaners and should shut up for ever more. Ever heard of the British principle of accepting a defeat with good grace, and being magnanimous in victory?

Those old-fashioned ways of ensuring a kingdom united in the values of decency, honesty and fair play have gone by the board. Nowadays, it seems to be end of me old china.

I must say the the OP link seems to lead to a place where ship is being stirred and sounds more appropriate for an April Fool posting.

Another foreign source hoping to undermine the UK by encouraging discord?

Atheist - The number of whinging or needling threads posted by Remainers, on this site, far outnumbers those made by Brexiteers.

Research on AB finds that euromaniacs were more likely to still use yahoo as a search engine because they are unable to learn how to use good ones. Guess who one of the funding groups for this "research"??? Yep right again the eeyyoo. 

“This like so much in the legacy media is what they would like to be true and what they want you to believe. “It may be true that people who are more ‘educated’ had a propensity to vote Remain at the referendum, but that is more down to indoctrination than any measure of intelligence. “It is a fact that people of high intelligence ‘free and critical thinkers’ are often the ones who challenge the ‘official narrative’. “It’s encouraging that in 2016 such individuals were still in the majority slightly. I hope given the many false narratives pushed to the public since the referendum, this remains the case today. “The older and wiser in our society tended to vote to leave the younger and more indoctrinated tended to vote to remain. “When the current narratives unravel as they shortly will, it will be interesting who is actually regarded as the wiser and more educated.”
The Brexiteer. 

Meanwhile Kevin McConway, emeritus professor of statistics at the Open University, said the research cannot establish that those who were less intelligent were more likely to vote for Brexit.
