I will tell what I hear JI, a lot and I mean a lot of young people when asked say leaving the EU was something they didn’t vote for and could not see any sensible reason why we would leave our major trading partner group which, despite the money it cost the country each year to remain a part of it, still the benefits outweighed the negatives. Now I know an awful lot of older people who voted to leave who remain tight lipped and not very forthcoming about what they believe now. I believe that is down to the fact that they are older,some rather set in their ways, don’t like saying the are or were wrong very often but they will soon be gone whereas the younger generation are the ones who will be left with consequences of leaving the EU. Sure life will go on but at what cost to standards of living and more financial hardship, whilst bringing up a young family, then before. Just an opinion but I am sorry we left the EU, not for me because I’m doing ok thanks compared to some but then I retired five years ago and my path had been prepared for that over the previous fifty years of a working life, most of it in the EU, don’t think the younger ones will get that same equal opportunity IMO because we have left
The question will be in the future “What were you thinking?”
