What happens when the Royal Throne Amazonian bog women of the great Pig and Whistle Pub reject welfare by growing their own potatoes? They don't need no stinking London help. And speaking of the Londoners, do you actually thing they give a bloody crap what the rest of Britain thinks? |

Yeah, thanks for actually watching that piece. It covers all of the bases and explains what Brexit is all about. I encourage everyone to watch this video... Mozart Edited by W A Mozart, Jun 27 2016, 08:53 PM.

The old voted to leave, the young to stay. Massive simplification, but roughly true. It looks like growth is going to be hit and immigration might come down, meaning less money and fewer workers to support pensions. With its ageing population, Britain has made enormous pension promises, increasing cash out to each pensioner while wages have stagnated. By the 2040s, governments have promised increased pension payments worth about £6,200 per worker if we have low immigration, about 23% of the median salary. The young should demand that any extra costs incurred by brexit are paid by the old. If the finance people are right we need to be prepared to bring forward pension age increases and freeze pension benefits to ensure that the young aren't paying even more for a decision they didn't want. The young have already been milked enough by the baby boomers with tuition fees, soaring rents and cuts to services and benefits for the young while pensions spending increased 25% in one parliament. |

Thank God for Jeremy Corbyn. The Brexit could not have happened without his work. |

Ah! Those stupid old people! Taking away the future, taking away the economic possibilities of the young. Without the EU in their future, a hopeless, dreary life awaits them all! How dare they? Just like the young is Switzerland. No future. Don't you just love the way the news media and the liberals/globalists/socialists spin a story? Old vs. Young. Simple. Those g'damn old people are destroying the future for us all! We must do something, stop them. The obvious assumption here of course is that the participation with a massive, faceless EU bureaucracy, accountable to no one, is the friggen future! These guys know best. You betcha. Right. Got it. The Orwellian EU is the future! (Er, didja watch the Brexit video above?) We all got the message here. Spin the vote! Now, if you're so worried about the YOUNG, and being milked and all of that, and being forced to pay those obscene pensions, might I suggest we place the blame on politicians, liberal/socialist politicians? Kinda like Greece, no? What it's called is spend, spend, spend till the cows come home and then scream "austerity" when someone is forced to pay the bills and make the ends meet. Greece. Socialists. Marxists. The Labor Party. Corbyn. Here in the United States the same FAR left-wingers saddled the YOUNG with over 20 trillion dollars in debt. Shhh! Quiet! Don't tell em yet. With me here? Who cares, we'll all be dead by the time the bill (for the young) comes due. In the UK it's just the same. They Labor Party has already spent the future, and the debt is coming due. Ooops. too bad. No money. I guess we'll just have to raise taxes, ...to 90% ....? Mozart Edited by W A Mozart, Jun 28 2016, 09:08 AM.

The majority of 18-24 year olds didn't vote at all, and that's despite a massive effort aimed particularly at them to do so. I'm shocked by the number of people who are agitating for a second referendum because they didn't like the result of the first. |

Here is an interesting Rolling Stone article that is so good and applies to both the UK and the USA so much I think I am going to give it it's own topic over on the Opinion board. It did not want to load properly in Chrome so you may have to use IE or Edge to see the whole article. http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/news/the-reaction-to-brexit-is-the-reason-brexit-happened-20160627?page=2 Here is a snippet.

The old pensioners were lied to, and as usual are those who fall for the lies easiest. |

Irish Banking is very strong... Dublin has a strong banking history. bringing back the industrial 6 Northern counties in a united Republic doubles their strength. |

The remain side have been lying and deceiving the public since the Common Market referendum campaign in 1975. Those lies became deep seated in the public mindset but that's changing now and how the remainers hate it. |

The Pension System(s) are a Ponzi scheme anyway (New participants pay for existing members). They are all doomed to fail. Brexit will be a nice convenient scapegoat for it though. Oh ya baby! |

The young are unaware of Britain...They have only known EU...They should be disqualified from voting due to their lack of knowledge...If they are unhappy with the Brexit vote, they should move to Germany..............

It is absolutely fascinating watching the 'liberal/socialist/globalist media go nuts over this. I caught this incredible interview of C. Amanpour doing an interview with Daniel Hannon, one of the leaders of the Brexit movement. It was incredible, unbelievable. Had I been Hannon I probably would have reached across and slapped the silly bitch. Arrogant. Pompous. Full-of-herself. Catch her smirking midway through the interview. This, ...this is journalism? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ivOOM0PbNps Mozart |
