EU Referendum

[chalkies_shorts]

But Corbin has continued the labour party elite's self perceived intellectual superiority to the common man. It's not their fault that the common man cannot operate at their intellectual level and get the argument. The common man then sees it as sneering, pompous fucking drivel that is not grounded in real life. Intellectual theory does not stop people losing jobs etc.
This is also the EU's attitude. Intellectual superiority that needs to be enforced on people because they are too fucking stupid. They don't need to even put the argument so certain are they.
The Tories are just vicious cunts. Bedroom tax etc. Fucking nasty.
It's no surprise the electorate have given a big fuck you. They are disconnected. Who is for them. For them it's worth a throw of the dice because what they have got is shit.

Oh well played sir. Very much what I would of liked to of said if only I could articulate.
The problem with democracy is letting the bloody poor people have a vote. It was all right when they didn't use it.
Having delivered cars to TUC headquarters, I was appalled to meet university middle class proffesional Carbon copy's of each other. They could not possibly understand my life. I'm no longer a member of a union or the Labour Party.

Fewer than half of under 30's could be bothered to vote....so most didn't use it.

I seriously can't fathom how Remain failed in places like that. I can't believe people are that stupid

Probably because the Leave campaign promised that anyone receiving EU grants would still get that money until at least 2020.

If you challenged the likelihood of that actually happening then you are a SCAREMONGERER!

I may be thick but i didnt think voters ages were recorded so how do we get these figures about the age demograph?

You're registered on the system, address/name/DOB etc.

When I turned up I have them my address and they found me and put a tick next to my name.. like a register.

I'd imagine it's from that database.

I think one of the polling companies (Ashcroft?) ran a poll on Friday. It also had the vote itself, hence knowing 75% of 24 and unders voted Remain, etc

So its only a sample poll then.thanks

There are no official figures but this is out there: http://www.newstatesman.com/politics/staggers/2016/06/how-did-different-demographic-groups-vote-eu-referendum

I don't understand Reg. Surely half (fewer than) of under 30's can't be most of the bloody poor people.

Ps "Bloody poor people" is a standing joke in my family. Long story but the gist is.... Rich farmer talking about my grandfather and his family in a loud voice so that my grandfather could hear him. This during the great depression.
My grandfather couldn't retaliate, however he became a Liberal councillor later in life and did all he could to foil tories such as the farmer.
I'm very proud to be a bloody poor person but could explain the chip I carry on both shoulders, as others on here would see it.

Interesting.but I deduce from that,rightly or wrongly that voters ages are not recorded.

Where does this leave UKIP now they've achieved their agenda and reason for being? No need to exist anymore is there? They've got their independence but it appears no fucker has the slightest idea what to do with it now.
