Here you go again. The only numbers uncle Vince quotes are these.
75% of under 25s voted to remain. But 70% of over 65s voted for Brexit.
You can't take anything at all from these meaningless figures. Of course, what you and uncle Vince would like us to believe is that 75% of all those under 25 voted remain. Which is absolutely not the case.
Here are the turnouts by voter age. Uncomfortable reading I know, as numbers have never been your strong point 😆
18-24: 36%
25-34: 58%
35-44: 72%
45-54: 75%
55-64: 81%
65+: 83%
So, 75% of the 36% of 18-24 yr olds who bothered to vote, does not equate to youngsters having had their future stolen from them by the silly old duffers in the UK.
There is a clear pattern in those numbers.
It is a fact young people do not bother to vote.
Biddies who are retired and do nothing but talk about the good old days have nothing else better to do unlike young people who have busy lives and can't be bovered to walk 10 mins to take another 10 mins out of their hectic social lives to vote.
Vince Cable indeed makes a valid point. Have another luuk to See if you can spot a trend in those numbers :whistling
