Our generation
What's it all about...these young pipsqueaks blaming the older generation for the 'Out' result when they wanted 'In'?Makes me think back to when our parents blamed us the way 'society' was heading.
It was all our fault then too. Free love, fashions, pot smoking hippies wafting flowers about.
Now we're all grown up and we're still a blight on society, perhaps we'll never get it right

for me it is all about making our way through life doing the best we can and the least harm whatever our age.

We don't know yet. We may have done them a big favour?

Re: Our generation
The kids are at that stage of life where they are most vulnerable to brainwashing and manipulation. They don't have the experience or knowledge to understand how the world really works. They want to feel like they have a view though in case they are asked, so they tend to repeat whatever mantra that has been programmed into them. Thank goodness enough people voted Leave this time round as the powers that be obviously have the next generation sewn up.

I'm glad I wasnt able to vote, he can't blame me and I don't have to admit he's making a lot of sense.

The youngsters are a lot more savvy than we give them credit for.
They certainly ask more questions than I did and challenge viewpoints and authority(in a good way)
One of the beauties of the Internet.

Re: Our generation
Of course they have a point, by the time all things are settled after leaving many older people will not be around.My son too has made some very good points against brexit. Now we have voted to do so it has caused chaos all round the world.Our cost of living will go up because we will be trading still with Europe , who will charge us high,all our cheap labour done by europeans will be left vacant ,as English workers wont do the jobs, and employers will not want to pay more to get them to do the jobs,or if they do they will put up the cost of their products. so much was not thought about in the frenzySo Yes the young do have a right to blame the old for blighting their future
