But it didn&#8217;t do so consistently. A majority in five outer boroughs voted to leave, with Havering&#8217;s 69.66% being the 12th highest leave vote of any of the 382 areas counted. Several of capital&#8217;s remain-voting areas did so very strongly, with Lambeth (21.38%) being second only to Gibraltar and the third to eighth places in the list being taken by other inner-London boroughs.<\/p>\n<p>This map shows the range of this 48 percentage point difference. A lot has been made of the divide between the capital and other parts of England and Wales, but the capital is more divided than any other region or nation despite the fact that unlike all the others it consists of a single urban area. Even the East of England, which includes some of the strongest leave-voting areas on one hand and strongly remain-voting Cambridge on the other, had only a 46 point gap. <!--more--><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: 1;\" src=\"https:\/\/samathieson.com\/mapping\/greater-london.html?x=-0.09&amp;y=51.52&amp;z=10&amp;title=Londoners voting Leave&amp;pre=Leave vote: &amp;post= percent&amp;E09000001=#01D&amp;00AA=24.71&amp;E09000002=#0dD&amp;00AB=62.44&amp;E09000003=#05D&amp;00AC=37.77&amp;E09000004=#0dD&amp;00AD=62.95&amp;E09000005=#06D&amp;00AE=40.26&amp;E09000006=#09D&amp;00AF=49.35&amp;E09000007=#01D&amp;00AG=25.06&amp;E09000008=#08D&amp;00AH=45.71&amp;E09000009=#06D&amp;00AJ=39.6&amp;E09000010=#07D&amp;00AK=44.18&amp;E09000011=#07D&amp;00AL=44.41&amp;E09000012=#00D&amp;00AM=21.52&amp;E09000013=#03D&amp;00AN=29.98&amp;E09000014=#01D&amp;00AP=24.43&amp;E09000015=#07D&amp;00AQ=45.37&amp;E09000016=#0fD&amp;00AR=69.66&amp;E09000017=#0bD&amp;00AS=56.37&amp;E09000018=#09D&amp;00AT=48.94&amp;E09000019=#01D&amp;00AU=24.78&amp;E09000020=#03D&amp;00AW=31.31&amp;E09000021=#05D&amp;00AX=38.39&amp;E09000022=#00D&amp;00AY=21.38&amp;E09000023=#03D&amp;00AZ=30.14&amp;E09000024=#05D&amp;00BA=37.06&amp;E09000025=#08D&amp;00BB=47.16&amp;E09000026=#08D&amp;00BC=46.03&amp;E09000027=#03D&amp;00BD=30.71&amp;E09000028=#02D&amp;00BE=27.19&amp;E09000029=#0aD&amp;00BF=53.72&amp;E09000030=#03D&amp;00BG=32.54&amp;E09000031=#06D&amp;00BH=40.9&amp;E09000032=#01D&amp;00BJ=24.97&amp;E09000033=#03D&amp;00BK=31.03\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" frameborder=\"1\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n<em>Source: Electoral Commission<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/samathieson.com\/sa-mathieson\/maps\/\">My portfolio of mapping work is here.<\/a> If you are interested in something similar, please get in touch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>London voted to stay in the EU, by 2.26m votes to 1.51m.
