More intellectual snobbery. You Chaps can`t help yourselves.

So who should we listen to then?

If you need an operation, who operates? you have 3 choices : 1) Man on the street who says he knows how to open up bodies 2) Nigel Farage 3) A surgeon, an EXPERT who has several years of training and education

If you are about to face trial for a crime, who do you get represent you? 1) Man on the street who says he has plenty of experience in the Courts as a defendant 2) Nigel Farage or 3) A Barrister, an EXPERT on the law with several years of training and education/

This is the issue though, those campaigned for Brexit were also the elite. Boris (Alexander Boris De PFeffel Johnson) , Michael Gove, Nigel Farage , Chris Grayling , ALL ELITE.

I suspect you need to look up the term "Metropolitan Elite".

I was concentrating on the 'Elite ' side. I would even class myself as the 'metropolitan elite' . Actually I am not left-leaning nor liberal. I just don't believe in this ****e in terms of the European Union, compared to most I have not relied on the Daily Mail , Express or The Sun to get my knowledge..

Don't worry PFE, a former pupil of St James School can't qualify as a member of the Liberal elite.

Daniel Hannon described things well as "The working classes vs the smirking classes".

Andrew Neil called it an "English Peasants Revolt".

He didn't.

Is he part of the anti-intellectualism that pervades so much of the right, and especially UKIP. I wonder if he's anti-science as well. He wrote some utter nonsense on social media during the referendum, had him marked down as part of Project Hate.
