    Average house prices are an indication of neither. If you added a whole raft of other statistics they could form a very small part, but otherwise they are meaningless.

    It should also be noted that a Commonwealth Citizen within the UK is functionally the same as a British Citizen. that relationship has become strained in the opposite direction, which is another reason why people voted leave.
    That is simply not true.

    Fun fact - about 58% of Britons polled are in favour of the lifting of tariffs and Freedom of Movement restrictions with the other "White Dominions", which are Canada, Australia, and New Zealand and we are by far the least enthusiastic Dominion.
    And what do each of those countries and their citizens think about abolition of tarriffs and introduction of uncontrolled immigration.
    Australians already complain about swarms of kiwis stealing their jobs and sheep under the Tasman scheme.
    Also what about the "not quite white" populations of those countries, or in the case of Canada the Quebecois, how would they feel about uncontrolled immigration from the "mother country" that isn't theirs?
    As for tarrifs how would the US deal with the abolition of tarriffs in Canada and how would it affect UK-US trade?
    Also concerning the US how would the presence of US immigration at Canadian points of entry work out?

    White Commonwealth Citizen have a vested personal interest in Brexit because it means better access to the UK for them - Britain will inevitably enter into a Freedom of Labour and Movement Pact with the other three. In fact, if you ask the average Briton who isn't politically knowledgeable they'll assume we already have one.
    That makes no sense.

    All I see in your post is the typical pie in the sky thinking like throughout the Brexit process and no thought on actual plans or consequences.
