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

[Darujhistan]

On what do you base this?

Look at the demographics.

 

[Stretch]

What is the point of this post? The referendum is over, you lost.

The point is it underlines mine, and many other peoples point.

It seems we've been voted out by a bunch of 60+ers, who feel threatened by immigration because "they're taking our jobs".

The same people who expected the rest of the working age population to pay their triple locked pension.

There is so much irony in the result it's untrue.

if the economy struggles, and they maintain the triple lock, I predict a riot.

The older people who voted leave, aren't going to pay the price.. as always.

Support for a referendum has been growing in Sweden for a while now.

I've been speaking to my friend from Sweden He says he feels the British...It wont be long be they join us

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.

You mean, like this:



?

Perhaps thats only slightly misleading, rather than completely misleading?

 

[Stretch]

Looks Airbus could fully pull out of the UK too in the immediate future...

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

Look at the demographics.

That does not explain why you think under 25s neither have experience of the EU, or if they did have, they would automatically want to leave it.

 

[Darujhistan]

I am 25, brother is younger, lots of colleges and friends who have had experience of the EU, pretty much all bar 2 voted in. Just Like I am sure not all older people voted out. My POV and most friends and colleges of similar age, this is a train wreck.

Some experience yes, not the same as someone who is 40 or 60 though. The demographics show that those with most exposure to the EU as an adult voted out.

 

[SciNeT]

You do also see that the 25-49 group voted to remain also, right?

I'm not saying their aren't deluded Bremainers in all age groups, but the 18-25 Starbucks brigade take the biscuit.

 

[Azza]

Tefal said all the guys there voted leave.

Whole thing is like turkeys voting for Christmas.

As posted earlier, if some people haven't seen it yet.

 

[Closing]

Perhaps thats only slightly misleading, rather than completely misleading?

I don't see how that is misleading at all, perhaps the reading comprehension of the remain lot is the issue here?

It seems we've been voted out by a bunch of 60+ers, who feel threatened by immigration because "they're taking our jobs".

So the OAP's shouldn't vote because they will not be around long enough to deal with the consequences? Yet you think they voted out because they feel so threatened by immigrants taking their jobs and making what little time they have left unbearable?

Be interesting to see how many of this demographic are retired...

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

BNPParibas also moving staff.

Nissan, Honda and Ford will move as well if they cant be guaranteed access to the EU market under the status quo.

 

[Dis86]

She made it very clear that there would be moves to hold another referendum.

And seeing the Scottish reactions and the fact that staying in the EU was one of the cornerstones of the Scottish voting to stay with the UK, I'd say Scotland is gone already.

Surely people weren't so naive to think this wasn't going to happen?

Oh wait.....of course they were.

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

 

[Jonners]

You're a very disturbing person.

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

 

[The Mad Rapper]

Other bits will go to. It's do to with the relevant banking licenses and being able to conduct business in the EU. 2,000 jobs at £100k per person (salary and bonus) would equate to £30k per person in income tax, £16k in NI and revenue booked in Dublin instead of London. That's probably a £100m tax ticket out the window from just one employer...

Not being rude, but I don't accept those figures are anything like accurate.

 

[[TW]Fox]

The reason why remain people are irate is because the country we live in will now fundamentally change. I accept that this is as a result of a democratic process but oeole are hardly going to shrug and say oh well are they? It's only natural that some will harbour feelings of disappointment especially given the 'wing it' nature of the Brexit argument.

Some experience yes, not the same as someone who is 40 or 60 though. The demographics show that those with most exposure to the EU as an adult voted out.

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

 

[Tosno]

So much hatred of old people, no wonder euthanasia is so popular with the left, they could have edge it.

 

[Seanspeed]

On what do you base this?

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

Old(er) people in selfish vote shocker?
