You know that the new voters are pro EU, because?

It's like you're telling me that young people are being programmed to become EU storm troopers. You're not telling me this are you?

Bc the young are the most pro eu age group
They haven't been programmed by decades of reading Murdoch propaganda

Going to the supreme court on the 17th. The issue is not whether he has the power to do it, but the fact he lied about his reasons and misled the public/parliament purposefully.

I can't speak for all young new voters obviously but all the experts claim the vast majority of them are more forward looking to the World and more pro EU.

However just in my family, of the 20+ in number, just in my family who have reached voting age..

Only 2 would either not vote in a referendum or if they did vote to leave.
All the rest are pro remain.

However none will vote Conservative.
Most would vote Lib Dem the rest Labour.
Mine overall was a family of Conservative orientated set of voters up to 2012 too.

So just in my family, the change is strong.

Of course I'm sure others may have examples the other way.
I am just speaking of the knowledge I have from my own family.

I think it was made clear however that younger voters strongly voted remain.
With more older voters voting leave.
That seems the general post referendum analysis.

Which is why I pointed out I can't speak for all obviously.

They could go to another factory and find all saying the opposite.


Which is why too, near the end of my post I fully conceded others may have opposite experiences to mine as to my own family.

What I hear from my family, I have found when canvassing too.

I'm always more leaning to what people say in person alone to me.
Rather than in a factory publicly stating a possible opposite view to their bosses.

It's why I think a referendum, not an election is best now, although I've changed my mind on a new referendum in the last ,6 months.
I'd only have 2 choices again.
This time leave with no deal, or remain.

Seems simple enough to me and breaks the deadlock with the answer.

If those who voted leave in 2016, REALLY were happy with a no deal.
Then they'd vote leave again.
I don't see the problem then.

Young factory workers wanting brexit are analogous to turkeys voting for christmas.

They will do anything to avoid another referendum. JRM was asked about a 2nd referendum the other day and he said "we can't do that because the result would be overturned". They know they'd struggle to pull the wool over a majority of eyes for a 2nd time, and his ability to avoid paying tax is far more important than young factory workers being employed in 5 years time.

I agree with all you say.
Nothing to add.
In fact all your posts are very strong and reasoned on this issue I have to say.

Serious conservatives, the traditional law and order party complete their transformation into the reddit-esque memes and trump nationalist party.

I know the corbyn haters will laugh, but you should want ideas and leadership, not this bs.

There's nothing confusing nor contradictory about this at all, though.

They would try to negotiate as good a deal as possible as a "safety net", but the best trade deal possible, is what we already have as full members of the EU. We already have the best possible deal. So we should try to keep it - but have a half decent backup plan if that's not possible.

Yes, I understand what the headline is, but tell me the meat of the argument, how do you know that young people are the most pro EU? Have you asked every single one of them?
