Regional exposure to Chinese import competition has often been linked support for the Leave option in 2016 UK EU membership referendum. Looking at 143 harmonised International Territorial Level 3 (ITL3) regions covering England and Wales, using data on density of online social ties between them, I show that regional leaving was also associated with socially connected regions. first delineate 18 commuting zones based interregional flows over three Census years. For each region, then construct a measure own set neighbours located outside its zone. Exploiting variation within zones, an instrumental variable approach, find two measures have comparable positive effects share vote. In series checks, do not evidence effect neighbours' is driven by economic channel or relationship ties. corroborate results survey vote choice. interpret these findings as indicative spillovers local labour markets: information from are likely behind estimated spillover voting outcomes.
