It's not a guess or an assumption; the figures are available.
Old, uneducated Tories. It's not a guess, it's not ignorant or naive, it is statistical fact.
If Brexit is cancelled, 50 - 70+ year olds are not going to be rioting in the streets. The idea is ludicrous. They will grumble that it's "****ing typical" to be ignored by politicians, and go on with their day. If there's any rioting, it'll be from groups who are motivated by the "controlling the borders" xenophobic aspect of the Brexit vote, and frankly, worrying about their reaction shouldn't be a factor in any decision made... because they're going to kick off anyway when we've full Brexited and immigration from Asia, Africa and the Middle East inevitably increases instead of going down as they are hoping. |
You have to wonder about that 5% of UKIP voters!
