On your own graph, whole regions of the country voted by a huge majority to vote leave, almost 60% and most of the others by over 50%. Only Scotland, NI and London voted differently. You never get a general election result so overwhelmingly clear like that.
I call that very united!

The country is most definitely not united ,almost half the voters are against the decision to leave the EU that is why the process up to now has been so so troublesome .You simply cannot say that the vote has united the country .

Either stayed to follow through on the result as he promised or resigned in a more controlled manner instead of spitting his dummy out .He has done the country a great disservice and if he is never seen in Parliament again it will be too soon

The rest of London is majority foreign and it is not out of this world to suggest that they voted a different way. I suggest they did. The correlation is clear.
The 3 million figure I quoted is for foreign residents in London. I didn't say they all voted, that's just how many are registered to vote.

You can tweak the figures as much as you like but it still doesn't mean the country is united behind Brexit ,the exact opposite is true
