    The younger generation (millennials) in the UK were on the stay side, the younger generation in the US is on the Bernie train and here they voted for more establishment and government control, not less.


    In my experience anyone under about 35 years old is a product of the very liberal education system, they believe everything they are told by the media and like being told what to do by the government.

    One interesting remark I heard yesterday about Britain dealing with the EU after departure - "If you're not at the table then you're on the menu."

    No that will be great.......I will be buying a lot more gear from there. My pigeon gear and stuff is only available from over there...
    Take the warning labels off. Darwin will solve the problem.

    The younger generation was generally voting to stay in the EU.

    If you check the stats you find that a much higher % of younger generation 18-30 yearolds voted to remain

    Nice to see people getting to vote and get what they want.

    How many levels of people telling you what to do are needed. Hopefully they can make the country great again.

    I for one hope so. I'm tired of Merkel and Belgium trying to run the UK at the Brits expense.

    Trudough should take notes. He very much plans on rigging our electoral system that has been in place since Confederation without holding a referendum on it. If Harper had done that there would have been heads explode and people in the streets with pitchforks. But Harper was a "ordinary" looking man though.......

    I’m suspicious of people who don't like dogs, but I trust a dog who doesn't like a person.
