Abstract

Presently, it is crucial to assess both the rationales for the United Kingdom's exit from the European Union and its continued membership. It is comprehensible that regions of the United Kingdom with the highest immigrant populations, the highest proportion of residents aged 65 and older, and the lowest levels of education might have supported BREXIT. The majority voted to remain in the EU was in Scotland, while the majority voted to leave was in Northern Ireland, London, and Provincial England. In the end, the matter concerns immigration and the dearth of employment prospects for the indigenous population of Great Britain. The purpose of this article is to examine the trend of the "vote to leave" movement in the United Kingdom through the lens of immigration issues and its correlation with poverty. Additionally, it is crucial to comprehend its long-term ramifications.
