Indeed.
I know from previous conversations with @Methuselah that we are both from that over 65 “scorched earth generation” but his attitude stinks to high heaven.
And there are plenty of us do not nor indeed cannot afford to share his smug attitude toward the younger generation.
I have working children in their 30s and 40s still trying to hold down jobs and make ends meet.
I have young grandchildren studying at school and university and I worry about their future.
Meth is the worst kind of Baby Boomer.
The type who were fortunate enough to be born at the absolute best time in the history of England to be young, white and male but refuse to acknowledge that fact.
We grew up with efficient and quick universal health care free at the point of contact, education for all irrespective of income and class, the smashing of glass ceilings in the employment world, affordable houses to get on the property ladder.
(not to mention the best music ever and the sexual revoloution that accompanied it
)But some of these arl fellows would, as you say, pull the ladder up behind them and let the devil take the hindermost.
It's very sad as I doubt few of the individuals are the kind of people who would deliberately inflict a bleaker future on strangers let alone younger friends and family, but the tribalism that brexit has brought upon them is seemingly all encompassingIndeed.

The EU are playing silly buggers because they don’t want us to leave. They need our money & the nearer brexit ones the more their buttock are clenching.
No idea mate.
Wow.
I thought that particular mantra had died a death about twelve months ago.
Seems there are still some believing year’s lies,
Could you elaborate on "The EU are playing silly buggers"?
Seems to me that one party set out their stall very early on and have been remarkably consistent, whilst the other one is showing all the signs of not really knowing what the end result should be, chopping and changing the people doing the negotiating, and show an astounding lack of regard for not only their own citizenry (stripping them of rights, endangering their economic future and in some cases their lives) but also for other affected peoples (EU citizens here, Irish citizens living near the border etc).
I agree. David Cameron sending a pamphlet to every home in the country (at taxpayer's expense) telling them to vote Conservative would have been electoral fraud.

Didnt see that option on the ballot paper mate.
But you continue to rewrite history if it makes you feel better.
Nope. Try harder.
Not like you to not read the post in context.

If they don't allow us, Spain will go bust.
Joke? Or you think that's true?
