Re: Brexit: Article 50 Has Been Triggered !

I purchased on line a pair of 27" leg trousers but when they arrived they measured 28", I phone company and requested a full refund of the cost of the trousers plus post, their reply was they would only refund the trousers but not the cost of post which was £3.5. I quoted the sale of goods act that the it should as described 27" leg and fit for purpose. They reluctantly said they also refund the postage.


They have lost a customer!

And stop generalising about the young did not want this, I know plenty of young people who voted leave.

You are conveniently forgetting we just had a Election where over 80% of the total votes cast went for parties aiming for brexit and a possible hard one too. That's 25 Million people voting for parties that intend brexit to happen. I would say that's the will of the people speaking, including the young who voted for Corbyn. If the young did not want this as you claim, then why did they not vote Liberal Democrats?

Oh look, more fake polls. Nobody has any idea how people voted and it still does not change end result.

Re: Brexit: Article 50 Has Been Triggered !

Its not a fake poll, its just a small sample poll - pretty much like running a vote here.

More fake facts from FullFact.org:

Young voters and the EU referendum/

Quote:

“Turnout among young voters 'almost double' initial reports”

Independent, 10 July 2016

Reports on the numbers of young people who turned out to vote in the EU referendum have been conflicting. But there is no definitive answer on how many young people voted in the EU referendum, or even which way they voted.

That said, whatever the exact figures, young people do seem to have been less likely to vote than older people.

How many young people voted?

Immediately after the referendum Sky News suggested that turnout for 18-24 year olds was around 36%. We looked into this and found that the figure was based on likely turnout for the 2015 election.

Since then a number of polls have been conducted which suggest that turnout for young people may have been much higher, with at least two thirds turning out.

However, these polls aren’t consistent in what they determine “young people” to be. Some categorise this as 18-24 year olds, some as 18-34 year olds.

Concerns have also been raised by John Curtice, President of the British Polling Council, about whether or not the polls are weighted accurately to take account of the fact that people who respond to polls tend to be more likely to vote in the first place. People who don’t vote are less likely to answer a poll about politics and voting.

As Professor Curtice points out, these polls report a higher overall turnout than was actually the case.

But they do all show that young people were less likely to have voted than their older peers.

How did young people vote?

Following the referendum result a number of polls have also tried to find out how the young people of the UK voted.

YouGov have suggested that 71% of 18-24 year olds who voted wanted to stay in the EU and 29% wanted to leave.

In a poll conducted by Lord Ashcroft in the days before the referendum and on the day itself, 73% of 18-24 year olds said they voted to remain in the EU.

And two academics have found that “of the 20 ‘youngest’ [local] authorities 16 voted to Remain. By contrast the Leave vote was much stronger in older areas. Of the 20 oldest local authorities 19 voted to Leave”.
You can ignore the above because Mick knows some young people who voted Leave

Re: Brexit: Article 50 Has Been Triggered !

Most of the polls of late have been mostly wrong. I find them simply unreliable.

The problem with educational standard with these polls is that educational standards have actually been lowered over the years.

A GCSE is by no means the same as a GCE.

Education standards are a totally different discussion but must be considered when you wish to assert brexit voters are less intellectual.
