I keep reading and hearing that it was "old" people that caused the recent result. My question is how do they know how people voted I assumed that voting was always a private affair a staw pole of the "olds" in my household it was 3 to 1 to remain presumabley these "facts" being spouted are gained from the same people who told us the last election was a shoe in for labour
On the bright side I see our leaders are doing their best to steady the ship....NOT!
 
The figures are from YouGov. Personally, I was brought up to accept the right to vote as a privilege, and a private matter. Anyone who asks which way I voted gets the same answer - mind your own business.

Barking on about the old screwing the young is pretty pointless, when masses of young people didn't vote - whilst they quote 75% of 18-24 voted to Remain, only 36% of them bothered to vote. So effectively the stats should be for 18-24:

27% - Remain
9% - Leave
64% - Don't give a s**t, but will complain anyways
