END OF!
Have you personally taken far worse, or your parents?

Of course you are leaving. But it is a stupid thing to do. I wish you would get that through your thick skull.

It seems that you and a number of others in this thread have lost touch with reality.

This thread however does give credence to the reported demographic analysis of leavers

do you honestly mean to say you want to be ruled by a Herr Von Smith/Jones? well I don't.

Shows what limited thought you actually have as to why many voted to leave
You’d better not look too closely at the royal family’s heritage then

Except it doesn't though, does it.

btw, do you not think older voters are entitled to a view on matters of national importance?

Leaving isn't stupid.

The way the Gov't has gone about leaving is stupid.

I realise that is a bit too nuanced for your 'thick skull' but that's where we're at!

Leavers have been poorly served by their representatives and I believe there will be a reckoning.

Where did I say that the Queen Rules. You merely jumped to the wrong conclusion
My comment was aimed at the posters obvious dislike of Germans else he wouldn’t cite the title “Herr”

The analysis of those who behave in that way is quite amusing

Unfortunately it does. It seems that if someone stubs their toe on a cracked pavement leavers blame the EU got the state of the Pavements and almost every other thing that has deteriorated since 1973. That suggests that quite a few people really have no understanding of what the EU was and wasn’t responsible.

Age was only one demographic statistic that was a predominant characteristic of leave voters.

As far as voting goes, I think that everyone who Had reached the school leaving age should be entitled to vote. If they are old enough to leave home and pay taxes then they should have a say in our society

Give them 15 years and they will want to leave the EU
