I doubt that the UK will be expelling any EU nationals who are working here.
The Leave campaigners wanted to introduce some controls over the currently unlimited immigration.
Part of the problem lies with the UK government's failure to address the overwhelming of communities by high immigrant populations and their associated impact on education, health and employment services.
Such areas need additional resources which can be rapidly deployed so that local British Nationals are not disadvantaged.
The government also needs to take direct action with respect to the 5% of the population who are unemployed. Getting these people into work will reduce the need for immigrants to come as there will be fewer jobs.
Having said that we will still need a number of immigrants as they have skills not found in our unemployed, who may need retraining.
Hostile action against immigrants and gays is not only unacceptable it does them a disservice as they all have a positive part to play in improving our society, given that many immigrants come here to set up businesses and to employ local workers.
A number of our existing businesses would struggle and things would be worse if foreign nationals were expelled, so such a move is counterproductive.
