The British town
that really wants to leave Europe

In
Romford Market a busker's jaunty tune wafts over shoppers wandering under
flapping Union Jacks.
"Stop your messing around. Better
think of your future," he sings.
Last
month Romford delivered its own message to European lawmakers: Leave.
In Havering, the borough where the town
is situated, 70% of people voted to exit the European Union, making
it one of the places with the highest percentage of Leave voters.
This is
not rural England, where so many Brexiters hailed from. Romford is a mere 17 miles
from Parliament, but a world away from London's liberal elite -- some of whom
were so disappointed by the outcome they've called for the capital to break
away from the UK and form its own city-state.

WHO- Brexiters
WHEN- Last
month
WHAT- The
British town that really wants to leave Europe
