That’s a really interesting link, thanks. The number 2 reason was immigration. I can see that it might be possible that immigration is a subset of “decisions about the UK should be taken in the UK”. I.e. the immigration policy shouldn’t be set by the EU.

It also suggests that leave voter see multiculturalism, feminism, the Green movement, globalisation and immigration as negatives (80%). Overall I see this as supporting the notion that the leave vote was anti-immigration, perhaps as part of a wider distrust of outside influences.
