>>The problem is that the referendum should have been framed as "Start exit negotiations."

Very true.

Many people thought voting for `leave` meant making the immigrants leave. They were interviewing people on BBC and people on the streets were approaching non-white people and saying `We voted leave, so you guys leave now.`

The vote should have been framed as `UK should remain in the EU`, `UK should exit the EU`.

That would have probably worked better than framing it as `Should the immigrants remain`, `Should the immigrant leave`.
