I disagree. Why "wrong at this time"?

What would have been a better time?

The time the referendum was called was as good as any and, had our glorious government seen fit to make preparations straight away for our forthcoming leaving, Brexit could have progressed with the minimum of disruption.

Moreover, the majority of the voting population made it quite clear that they wanted to leave the EU. Surely, you cannot accuse them all of being insufficiently aware of the consequences and, indeed, benefits. After all, they were extensively discussed well before the vote.

You really are a class act (not!)

It's nothing to do with any of that. And, it's not worth repeating to someone as closed minded as you.

Jealous of the young? You mean the ones with their faces permanently stuck in a phone while sitting on a gender neutral carsy, with their sense of entitlement next to them?

There deffo won't be a future if any of that lot try to run things.

I'd rather let me cat run the country.

What sort of twisted mind can come up with such absolute cr@p?

Seriously? Saying that we want to ruin the future of the young and want to outlive them.?

That is our children you are referring to.
You may hate your children (If any) but don't judge others by your own distorted mentality.
