Stupid old man..........is that how you do it jj?
Enough about you, what about Vince? What part of what he said isn't borne out by the facts? The most selfish element of the most selfish generation, a bunch of I'm alright Jacks who ate their own young. The least affected. The retired, the home owners, the triple locked pensioners who threw the following generations on the fire for their own folly, whospent twenty years swallowing the bile of Mail & the Telegraph hook line & sinker.

Is that the same bile that prompted them to vote to stay in 1975....?The least affected.

What a f
king con.I know you cannot bear the thought but maybe, just maybe, that generation felt especially...misled (for want of a better word) and felt it necessary to address it?
Or maybe they just don't like young people and did it for a laugh
Either way, I'm not sure this approach is going to increase the LibDems standing that much.

Oh sorry I forgot he's ok because he voted remain....it's only the old fogies that voted leave that are stupid apparently....time will tell who's right.The least affected.

What a f
king con.ps I doubt the vote will effect me very much but I genuinely believe Brexiting is the best thing for the longer term of the country, the futures of my kids, grankids and any future generations to follow me............i'll apologise to them all if I'm wrong...........if I'm able of course (perhaps I should leave some sort of electronic recording for posterity)
Always thought he was a prick, he has been confirming that assessment recently.
It isn't the current elderly who look back on the empire, it was the now dead previous generation who thought that way.
My parents are in their mid 70's now, they worked hard and had fook all when they were bringing up me and my siblings, living through the st that was the 70's whilst trying to make ends meet with small kids. The picture he paints of this generation is from his own bubble, its a despicable point of view to promote for a so called leading politician.

What a f
king con.Cable is as much as an irrelevance as Farron was (arguably more so), the hysterics won't get him anywhere, apart from ridicule, water off a ducks back to 'Dr Doom' who has always been a nobody, so well used to it.

Nick Clegg is not Vince Cable, Murph. I can send an explanatory leaflet if you like.Eddie Strohacker said:

Nick Clegg is not Vince Cable, Murph. I can send an explanatory leaflet if you like.He was just as complicit in lying to students as Clegg, even admitting on question time they lied and offered something they couldn't deliver.

Can you send me one please? I honestly can't tell the difference through the slime.BTW,everyone I know who voted leave are under 50.
Be careful before you dismiss Vince Cable as a fool. There's a huge undercurrent of anti-Brexit out there, and it's a strong current. The Tories lost their majority because of it.
I am always shocked at the amount of letters to the Standard etc claiming to want to stop Brexit (not just soften it, but stop it all together). If Vince Cable is right about that generational split, then some of the Leave voters have probably already died off and their voting space is now being filled by pro-EU youngsters.

Well I know a few "youngster" that are waiting to take my place..... and no it isn't in my will that they should vote to remainI am always shocked at the amount of letters to the Standard etc claiming to want to stop Brexit (not just soften it, but stop it all together).

If that were true the Lib Dems would have done better in the last election. Both Labour and Conservatives were promising to carry out the referendum result and those two parties wiped the floor with the Lib Dems.I am always shocked at the amount of letters to the Standard etc claiming to want to stop Brexit (not just soften it, but stop it all together).
