Current Affairs EU In or Out

[Old Blue 2]

73% of 18-24 yr olds voted Remain

81% of those still in full time education did as well.

They see things like free movement as a massive benefit, your generation tends to only see it as immigrants arriving here, they view it as an opportunity to be free to live and work anywhere in Europe without having to apply for work permits, visas etc.

OK, hot doggy, can you please provide the statistical evidence that the WHOLE COUNTRY between the ages of 18 and 24 were consulted on what they voted? No? Of course not!!! Because it didn't happen! Because polls, by their very nature, are not statistically valid. As valid as ' 8 out of 10 cats prefer whiskas'!!!

Ditto for those in full-time education.

Let me give you an example of taking polls to their illogical conclusion. You can do a poll of a certain type of voter, and come to the conclusion that 100% voted 'Out' (because you only asked those who voted 'Out'). You can do a poll of a certain type of voter, and come to the conclusion that 100% voted 'In' (because you only asked those who voted 'In').

You throw out statistics that are not worth a proverbial carrot...

I'm sure that made sense in your head mate

It does you can't accept it the referendum result quoting stats - I quote our game today 66 percent possession can we replay that game - No stats you quote in the referendum mean nothing 52-48 OUT won!
Just like Burnley did unfortunately!

So you don't understand how polls work then. Good to know.

I'll give Lord Ashcroft your feedback mate.

I'm sure the results of the polls taken were the complete converse and all of youngsters wanted to leave

The stats I quoted highlighted a point.

It's interesting that all of the oldies who've commented on it have all completely avoided that point.

You obviously don't understand ''statistically valid' with regard to polls...

 

[Old Blue 2]

On the contrary, I know how polls work. I also know what constitutes statistically valid. Do you...?

 

[Foot Long Hot Dog]

You obviously don't understand ''statistically valid' with regard to polls...

Neither do you if you're completely disregarding the stats given (as you don't like the results) without even asking for the source or the sample size.

 

[The Esk]

also know what constitutes statistically valid.

Then you'll agree that a referendum can only ever be advisory and not binding?

 

[Prevenger17]

Then you'll agree that a referendum can only ever be advisory and not binding?

Pls leave democracy alone

 

[Joey66]

Then you'll agree that a referendum can only ever be advisory and not binding?

Yet unfortunately for you the government of the day will accept the democratic vote, if you think they are UN
democratic listen to the EU so called institution who wants to live in that institution?
That's the main reason Remain lost a beurocratic mess ready to implode IMO!
Having no effective opposition is a downer too!

Oh I do. That's why I challenged you in the first place. Don't you realise that...?

 

[Old Blue 2]

Then you'll agree that a referendum can only ever be advisory and not binding?

You have moved from a statistically valid or otherwise POLL to a statement regarding a referendum. The two are mutually exclusive. You cannot link the one to the other. Please don't try to obfuscate matters with me. It won't work, Esk...
