I "understand" they voted Leave because that is how they said they intended voting. As I was not in the voting booth to witness how they actually voted I cannot say that I know for a fact how they voted. I chose my wording quite deliberately.

There are now potentially quite a few issues concerning retiring to sunnier southern europe  (and before anyone tells me that nothing has been sorted out yet - I know that! - I am just flagging up some points to bear in mind).
