Two big towns Swindon / Sunderland vote to leave .
Both had big car plants and were warned by the car giants no to vote leave as it may risk job loss.
Neither town has a high percentage far right wing UKIP voters .

I suspect car jobs losses may have happened anyway as the car industry is changing quickly, diesel car made at both plants will drop in sales as hybrid solution rises,perhaps is one of those convenient times to bury bad news and blame something else for its inevitable decision .

It maybe the Japanese economy, as it contracts their companies are slashing spending , and what goes first , is usually your foreign investments , to protect your own GDP.
