Surely they have a lot of experience to know what decision is right for them, and have lived long enough to know if they want to leave or remain? LEAVE OAP's ALONE!

Tbf they are a tad irrelevant to this vote, the outcome will impact us young adults more than anyone else

Yep, if it was 51-52% "exit" I doubt they would even consider actually leaving the EU, it's too drastic a decision to make based on a margin that low. Anything above 55% exit though, and I think it would have major implications for democracy if they didn't see it through.

#IVotedLeave 56,000 tweets
#IVotedRemain 4,000 tweets

Come on social media :clap1:

Scarlett. 23-06-2016 08:50 PM

I used the hashtag #remain, there is several variations of it, including the Labour one.

_Tom_ 23-06-2016 08:51 PM

There's also several variants of the Leave hashtag - #VoteLeave, #Leave, #LeaveEU

Black Dagger 23-06-2016 08:52 PM

Bearing in mind Labour was trending heavily during the general elections, and look at the ****ing mess we got left in.

Braden 23-06-2016 08:54 PM

Yeah, the hashtag doesn't represent any sort of voting statistics. I gurantee a lot of the tweets using that hashtag will be negative.

zakman440 23-06-2016 08:57 PM

BBC coverage has started.

bots 23-06-2016 09:02 PM

:joker::joker::joker::joker: And your NEXT joke is?

A WIN is a WIN - no matter by 1% or 90%. You of all people should know this - being a betting shop manager.

There will be riots in this country should 'Leave' win by 1% and the Government announced that the margin was so small they are ignoring the result and remaining.

If ALL 46.5 million voters actually voted, and Leave won by 51% to 49% - that would equate to 930,000 more people voting to leave.

Hopefully The Scottish and Northern Irish vote can sway the split England/Wales vote

they reckon quite a lot of turnouts are in the 80%:shocked:

lewis111 23-06-2016 09:14 PM

So annoying how I can't vote when I feel I'm more educated onthe issue through Modern Studies at school than a lot of people voting and this will be deciding my future for my entire life not just the end of it

_Tom_ 23-06-2016 09:14 PM

Sky saying estimated turnout to be 83.7%! :o

With the odd 'Voting out, I dont like paying tax' and stupid things like that

Braden 23-06-2016 09:15 PM

That's one good thing to have come out of the referendum, then - let's hope it lasts by the time the next general election comes around (I highly doubt it but hey, one can dream)

Same, one person even commented on my voted #Remain post, and I came back with actual facts and pointed out that the EU funds a lot of projects in the UK, only for the other person to be like "you young people dont know freedom!"

It's so tedious with the immigrant card being pulled out every single time!
