Résumé

La inmigración se ha convertido en un arma electoral. La propagación de una imagen negativa sobre la inmigración como estrategia para obtener votos ha sido utilizada en diversas situaciones. El elemento fundamental de este discurso se centra en la vinculación entre inmigración y delito. En este trabajo se discute sobre la utilización de la inmigración y su vinculación con el crimen como instrumento para obtener ventaja electoral durante la campaña del Brexit. En este sentido, se han analizado las portadas de los periódicos y tabloides británicos durante los dos meses previos a las elecciones y las referencias que contenían sobre la inmigración. Además, se han estudiado los vínculos entre esta utilización y la evolución de las encuestas electorales. Puede afirmarse que, durante la campaña electoral del referéndum del Brexit, los partidarios de abandonar la Unión Europea convirtieron la inmigración, especialmente la crimigración, en un elemento trascendental para obtener la victoria.
