In the meantime, the new leader of that large and powerful political party the LibDems, has stated that he believes the older generation have 'shafted' the younger generation over the Brexit votr.
Quote:
Older people who voted for Brexit have "comprehensively shafted the young", Sir Vince Cable has said.
Writing in the Mail on Sunday, the Lib Dem leader accused the over-65s of being "self-declared martyrs" who claim leaving the EU is worth the cost.
"The martyrdom of the old comes cheap," he said, as fewer have jobs to lose and living standards are protected by the triple lock on pensions.
"For the Brexit martyrs, paradise beckons," he added.

Most strange because I was of the understanding the referendum allowed equality in giving everyone the same single vote :hmmm:
Of course, it is common knowledge that the elderly generally get to the voting stations to exercise their voting rights whilst a considerable number of the younger generation usually can't be bothered....so who's fault is that then? |
