I haven't looked into it too deeply but the Secretary of State Theresa Villiers says the border will be unaffected by Brexit but other politicians are saying this is ridiculous. How much of this is hysteria versus downplaying the issue is unclear. It would certainly be bad for the island if this was to occur.

The UK is not a part of the
Schengen Area, which is the thing that lets EU citizens travel freely without passports etc. So the UK still maintains its own border control, meaning exiting the EU would not affect immigration all that much.

Here in Canada (I am British) the majority of refuges coming in are generally sponsored by government officials or people with wealth.
It doesn't make sense to me, how are they refuges?

Because refugees are not necessarily poor people? They’re fleeing from war, that doesn’t mean they’re destitute.
