A political motivation expressed by the public, in a public vote, is not subjective

Question

My question was put on hold as opinion based, and I think it should be reopened.

The question was: What were the actual motivations that drove the Brexit?

I cite some examples of publicly supported motivations for a Brexit, which by fact checking, political pundits proved false or partially false, however the people of the UK voted for it anyway, so I assumed my information on the motivations that existed to compell people to vote for it was incomplete. I asked what other political motivations were factors in the public vote. All of this information would be public knowledge, not secret, not an opinion.

If this were a vote cast by politicians behind closed doors, perhaps you could call the motivations a secret. But what we're talking about is publicly expressed political motivations. Its possible for an answer to cite polls, recorded interviews with voters, and slogans of groups supporting or going against the Brexit. An answer could do so strictly without an opinion in the matter, just stating the publicly available facts.

Therefore the question is answerable objectively, not opinion based. The users who voted to close my question were wrong. Please vote to reopen, if there are some more sensible users reading this. Thanks.

Answer 1

I can get behind a question that says something like:

John Oliver says that Brexit supporters are motivated by X and Y, but I don't believe him because he is not a Brexit supporter. What do actual Brexit Supporters say their motivations are?

That's a perfectly fine question.

However, all the talk about fact checking the pros and cons, and about doing an analysis made the question sound more like this:

People say that Brexit supporters are motivated by X and Y, but I don't believe them because X and Y are much weaker than the cons of Brexit that I know of. What are Brexit supporters really motivated by?

And That is a very opinion-based question, because it relies less on actual verifiable statements, and relies more on guessing.
