I despair of how easy it is for people to idealise someone in these challenging times from wannabe idiots on reality shows to wannabe PMs with nothing more than a few promises. Low standards all round.
It's a touch disturbing how gullible the youth is.

Youth don't vote. "Youth need to wake up and get into politics"

Youth rally behind and get passionate about someone you don't like. "Youth are so gullible"

It's politics, you can't trust any of them. And you don't know what I like or dislike.

Exactly Brother Leon.
It's really tedious now this put down on the young.

No wonder there is a divide.

Just ignore it Joey. Its meaningless because you and I both know that our youth are the future of Britain and whilst some may not like that, its evolution!

Do I have to mention the elderly with Brexit? That was the very definition of gullible as people fell for Farage and Boris's bull**** that haven't come to pass and will never come to pass.

That's because (again) you're making a presumption about why and who voted for Brexit.

Statistics was put up on here from another website that it was mainly older people that voted for Brexit.

Btw I love how my opinion is presumption but younger people voted Corbyn is a fact.

That doesn't make sense since we are talking about Glastonbury and not the general election.

You didn't provide any statistics I saw. So I can't comment on the credibility of them. But I do not believe all 17 million people were suckered by Boris and Nigel. I think quite a few people can think for themselves.

Potentially. I think anyone who buys into what a politician is telling them is being suckered really. They never keep their promises.
