Simply wrong old bean.
Despite claims that young people could not be bothered to vote, they did. In fact, turnout was 64% among 18-24 year olds and 65% among 25-39 year old, which is closer to the population average than could have been expected. 71% of people aged18-24 voted to remain in the EU, and 62% of 25-39 year old's
You will recall that I said less likely to vote. That is, less likely to vote than the older age groups, which is absolutely born out by the result.
Therefore my original statement remains accurate, any voter (Leave or Remain) is more likely to be older.
Of course there is the other aspect, of real, absolute numbers. As there are more older voters than younger voters, the simple percentage doesn't give an accurate impression. 64% of a smaller group is a great deal less than 90% of a larger group.
29% aged 18 - 39
49% aged 40 - 60+
The number of young voters ≤13,274,982
The number of older voters ≤ 22,430,142
Therefore, my original comment is accurate on both counts, however you wish to view it.
But I'm glad that you have regained your ability to discuss sensibly.
