(I originally posted this on another blog which I am now closing down. But I wanted to keep the information and the link to the full text.)
The Bishop of Salisbury wrote to all clergy in the Diocese following the UK-EU Referendum (28 June 2016). Read text of letter here. (Link still works 4th April 2018.)
It includes a breakdown of voting within the Diocese which makes interesting reading as it shows the extent of the division.
On the whole there were more voting to Leave than in the country overall. However in Wiltshire one electoral district voted 75% Remain and another in the same county voted 83% Leave.
There was a marked division by age. A survey suggests that age was an important factor.
18-24: 75% Remain
25-49: 56% Remain
50-64: 44% Remain
65+: 39% Remain
