The majority of the next generation are not snowflakes. Like every future generation, they have the potential to do great things if they are allowed to expand their horizons beyond what they know now.

Oh, OK.

Just entitled then.

Fair enough.

I still think you would never, ever, in a month of Sundays, put your money where your mouth is.

Give it all up for the next generation ? Really ? Pull the other one, it's got bells on smile

Such bravery. winkbiggrin
Not at all. I see the future outside the EU as the best path forward for the nation as a whole long term.

What would be brave, is understanding how bad things are going to be within the EU in the future and not taking this opportunity to get out whilst we still can.

This is not just from a financial position, but socially too.

The question was asked what we are prepared to risk, that doesn't mean that is what i expect will happen.

Remainers simply cant process that people are prepared to take short term hits to move forward long term. That is baffling when put in the context of our whole life "journeys"

Some remainers don’t just have their own selfish needs to fulfill . When you have a few hundred or few thousand employees decisions are based on colds hard logic.

But by your own admission you have needed to change career several times and then did a runner, it appears from your family. That doesn’t sound very Strong and Stable.

Plenty of leave supporters have the same pressures and responsibilities.

But the "future generations" on the whole have a totally different outlook than yourself around this kind of thing.

Why would you choose to be "quite prepared to lose everything i have" when they'll simply reverse it at the first opportunity?

But are still in a massive minority.

At least now we are teasing out the truth on the various views of Leavers.

I have never run from anyone. laugh

Its amazing you cant understand some people dont want to go through life on a treadmill where you would never assess where you are going and decide to make a change.

Maybe this is at the heart of the Brexit divide, how risk averse you are.

I am just one of the majority.

You have been told for over 2.5 years why people chose to vote leave. You still cant process it.

A start would be a recognition that UK is leaving EU on 29th March
and then ask both remainers and leavers (i.e. include everyone) which they feel would be best for UK
a) May's backstop deal (assume it's staying as what it is)
b) no deal

Doh maybe it needs a poll

You have 2.5 years of posts to read, do some of your own homework.

I was asking for your opinion - not everybody else's opinion.

No skin off my nose if you won't answer the question.

But I reckon your answer will be "Think of the children" or some other guff if your previous posts are anything to go by.

To me you sound totally risk adverse.

Get into a serious relationship. No

Have the responsibility of Children. No

Start a business and employ some people. No

Stick at a job long enough to be really good at it and recognised as so. No.

You are nothing like any of the leave voters I know. Some of whom I can disagree with viemently but respect why they hold their view. You share few of the values they hold dear.
