Its the same in most Western countries. People with more money than sense fall for the kind of emotionally driven propaganda that these kinds of parties use.
Naive, well-off people can afford tax increases and live far enough away from problem areas. They don't have to worry about the consequences of the eco and immigration policies they vote for.

This argument happened onboard his yacht. Not even kidding.
