It really depends by what percentage they voted to leave and the strength and positions of the other MPs. In Richmond, Zac Goldsmith is likely to be re-elected but his constitutents voted 72% to remain. People vote for other things apart from Brexit.
And of course, opinions change. We saw oday that many Asians who were targeted by Vote Leave have felt they were betrayed as Indian Sub-Continent work visas have not increased and they feel this threatens the viability of Indian restaurants in the UK. The growth of hate crime post the Brexit vote and steep rise in imported ingredients costs due to the weakened £ has further eroded support from this demographic.
