Some of them would have had a vote 8 years ago
Or been able to take not time off work/school
Or been away from home constituency due to college/uni

87% of under 25s want to rejoin the EU.

They got completely screwed, so I understand why.
That would be all the ones who could not be arsed to go and vote, if all the under 25s who could vote had voted stay we would still be members.
Well the European Commission is proposing free movement for young people from the UK and EU, so they may get back some of the freedoms that the old farts voted away!

Lol, even extending the registration deadline because of a website glitch couldn't get them off their backsides.

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/06/10/eu-ref...

Polling stations were open from 7.00 am to 10.00 pm.

One could also vote by post.

Anymore lame excuses you want to come up with?

Seasonal farming and UK restaurant trade could do with an influx of youngsters, likewise EU youth unemployment needs addressing, so they’ll send them to the UK.

Really? How long do you think they'd need to extend the deadline for, in order to allow 17 year Olds to vote?

Numbers still aren't your thing, are they?

Joining the schengen would be a no-brainer too, now that Europe is taking a continent-wide approach to immigrant/asylum seekers.

Controlling workers / immigration was always the goal imo..

I don’t think even the average daily mail reader has an issue with the ones that work.

That's the second time in 2 days you've referenced the Daily Mail, I guess it's your required reading over your Honey Nut Cheerios in the morning. rofl

Err don’t be silly. European Commission has said it had acted after the UK had made approaches to individual EU countries, known to include France, to open a youth mobility scheme.

Khan isn't although I'm sure he'd love to be one.

Does not change the facts does it?
