Who supports Brexit?

Everyone must have seen the various graphics on social media from Remainiacs trying to suggest that the Leave campaign is supported only by disgruntled Tories in their 50s, racists and despots whilst the Remain campaign is supported by young and dynamic people, world leaders and the enlightened and educated intelligentsia.
