Nothing disgusting about it, it's cold arithmetics
London's Evening Standard have done some research and according to them first time ref vote splits 3-1 for remain. Considering the over 60s were overwhelmingly for Brexit it's fair to say that the likelihood is that with every first time vote and every funeral the scales are tipping in favour of remain.
