Poll: The Official OcUK EU Referendum Exit poll (and results discussion thread)

[Closing]

No he isn't.

Most were young and foolish once upon a time, and most will have probably voted in favour of the Common Market/EU. But now they have a sensible Head on their Shoulders, they have seen sense and saved our Bacon, from another 40+ years of ****

Think of the Kids

This exactly, I don't think it's fair writing off all the older leave voters just because they'll be dead soon!

They've seen the good and the bad and like you say, I think even the sternest remainers will be thankful in the years to come.

polled on a whole 1652 of the 34 million voters.... sounds cherry picked to me.

France looking for their chance to bail the sinking ship?

Some arrogant belief that being 50 years old means you know what is best for everybody else, I guess.

Of course they know better. It's what comes of having life experience.

This is why we shouldn't give votes to the under 25's, they simply don't have a clue.

Nor the 65+

This thread belongs in mumsnet. So much moaning.

40+ years of ****

?

40 years of peace and relative prosperity? We have never had it so good for the most part. What are you expecting now that we have voted to leave? That we will all get 6 figure salary jobs and ride unicorns to work?

So what was the point of Scotland wasting all that money on the first referendum? Surely they should have waited until after this one?

In hindsight, sure. I'm guessing many didn't actually think a leave vote would win out, though.

Morgan Stanley have announced they are starting to move staff too.

Something to do with their Euro clearing part of the business - you'd want that part of the business in a Euro country right?

 

[do_ron_ron]

It is not remotely in the EUs interests to give Britain a favourable deal.

Exactly, it is the EU's interest to penalise the UK to deter others who may be thinking of leaving although if Greece wanted to leave they would make probably hasten the process

Dunno like. I'm younger and smarter than both of my parents which is why they defer a lot of their major decisions to me. Or at the least consult me on them.

You mean, like this:

Perhaps thats only slightly misleading, rather than completely misleading?

The NHS won't see a penny.

Eventually, give it time.

The Leave campaign didn't say they were going to spend £350m a week on the NHS, ploughing all the money into that wouldn't make sense.

They just used it as an example, that's how I read it anyway.

Pretty unambiguous...

Polled - so flawed from the start

What do you consider the same experience? I spent 2 years in Germany and France Living and studying. Likewise similar situation with lots of friends, brother is either there or living in Singapore. Pretty sure that's more experience then most brits have in regards to the EU no? Sure there will be older brits with more experience, but had a fair taste, and it did taste good

I'm talking length of time, and there's more to EU exposure than Erasmus. What you've had is a nice studying experience. Hardly representative of living under the EU.


Pretty sure that's more experience then most brits have in regards to the EU no?


How is 2 years of Erasmus more exposure to the EU than say 30-40 years of living as a part of it?
