netherlands, denmark, ireland .... all voted anti-europe...and got overturned or ignored.

The game is now up for the EU, it has lost all credibility and is seen for the anti-democratic bully that it is.

Eze Peasy at Anfield....

All the more reason to stay in and make the changes to get it to work as it should. Not take your ball home.

so you are saying that children who watch StarWars should get a vote , and adults who fought in the War shouldn't ?

if people do not get to vote on something because 'they will be dead when the repercussions happen'

..... then you will not mind if i put a nuclear re-processing plant into your back garden ? presuming you have already left the womb, then all the birth defects will not get you directly ?

Eze Peasy at Anfield....

I watch star wars and that has what to do with age.
And I don't really mind about that plant as it will be safe.
Adults who fought in the war are nearly all dead or not with it so no they shouldn't or couldn't.
I'm stating that if you pay tax you should have been able to vote in the referendum.
The result would have been different. Is that why it was a good idea not to allow it then.

Yeah, 'cos all old people are so gullible and easy to manipulate, aren't they? Not like all those 18-21 year olds who voted for Corbyn's lot at the last election because he promised to do away with student loans.....and then admitted after that they couldn't afford to do it, whilst all us oldies had a jolly good laugh, whilst waiting for our meds to come round, over the lies politicians tell.

A stairway to Heaven and a Highway to Hell give some indication of expected traffic numbers

The word was potentially
Not was or were.
And 18 year olds were allowed a vote at the general election not 16 year olds.
Not all 18-21 year olds are super gullible like a lot of older folk are not either.
The difference was 2%
Not 20 or 25%
That probably would have been wiped out with 16 and 17 year olds
As for older people you will find many easy to manipulate. I could if inclined to do it to my parents in certain situations. I don't I only advise when asked. That's the point that they may have asked which way to vote to benefit their kin and hey Presto.
Ask most people with parents of 80 plus and it will be how it is.
Sorry to anyone if they don't or wouldn't be manipulated by their kin but many do and in this referendum it would have followed that pattern.
Look I want the best out of this for me, my kids and their kids God willing.
I just feel it won't be all it is cracked up to be.
I stand to be proven wrong and hope I am.
In the meantime I am entitled to voice my concerns about it. I don't think there should be another vote for the record it was just the wrong criteria.
