The government official analysis shows this is the case.
Thanks Tony Blair and those who followed you for making the Buy to Let parasites rich at the expense of young people. Blair himself got rich on BTL property.

The Tories need to get the numbers down as they promised.
The people voted to take back control and sort this mess out.

Yet it was the older generation who voted for BREXIT and the younger generation who voted to remain

How do you know that CLYDEBANK?
|
|
By:
So you're saying that 52% were older voters while 48% were younger voters?
I'd say that's nonsense. |

ive not met a retired person who has suggested they voted to stay.

71% of 18-24 year olds voted to REMAIN
36% of 65 and over voted to REMAIN 68% of people with Degrees voted to REMAIN 30% of people with GCSE or lower voted to REMAIN |

I've met two. My mum and dad Callisto

By:
65% of Labour supporters voted to REMAIN which is intereting
|
|
By:
when you consider 68% of people with degrees voted to REMAIN
|
|
By:
well the votes are in, we better get on with it.
|
|
By:
That simply shows a bias towards leaving in the numbers of older people who to voted.
And a bias towards remaining in the number of younger people who voted. Which is not what you wrote. 68% of people with Degrees voted to REMAIN So 32% of people with degrees voted to leave? |

Mr Blair would swap his whole portfolio for one more day in number 10.

What does that prove, that cheap imported labour doesn't affect people with I'm alright Jack degrees so much as those without degrees? |

It's the UK working classes who are weeping CLYDEBANK. |
|
By:
what has degrees got to do with the pressure an extra 8 million has put on the infrastucture and housing in particular?
Typical deflection. |

Wel you could argue that, but then you look at Ebbw Vale. An area with huge EU handouts that has transformed the area (and I imagine very low immigration) and it had the biggest vote leave percentage in the whole of Wales and possibly the UK. So I'd say not.

How many people with a large mortgage would vote for a party that would see their house become substantially less valuable, possibly pushing them into negative equity and - as proved last time round - followed by the real possibility of a serious recession?
Not arguing for or against the opening argument but if you take the situation as it is today a party that said to voters "we're going to make your main asset lose 20% of value" is going to struggle to win people over. |
|
By:
the vast majority of old people don't have degrees,(they quite rightly didn't need them and they were more intelligent than todays generation) and the majority voted leave
that's why they voted leave and don't have degrees, they are too old nothing to do with intelligence simply life in Britain as it is and was so stop talking nonsense, there is no point quoting numbers if you don't understand numbers |

By:
How could any party make house prices lose 20% of their value PP?
|
|
By:
also house price increases have surprisingly little to do with immigration
|
|
By:
mass immigration is as likely as anything to lead to falls in house prices, and in the long term it is more than likely and almost certain
|
|
By:
lfc half the 18-24 aren't old enough to have degrees.
I mentioned education levels not intelligence fwiw. I'm well aware that far more people do degrees now than used to. My parents are either side of 80 and they both have degrees and they voted to stay. |
|
By:
sorry Clydebank I think you will find the age group not old enough are 18-21
now that leaves the rest of the young people, 21-35? whatever and that generation far more have degrees ,ok many of dubious worth then you have the older generation and perhaps 5% of that generation have degrees Why? because only 5% went to university you see if 50% of young people go to university today they will come out with some sort of degree, even a bad one and it was the same in the past. although only 5% instesd of 50% Now I,m sorry but that skews the figures however you look at it |
|
By:
especially so if it is as you claim the older generation that voted brexit
|
|
By:
The older generation voted brexit, the older generation don't have degrees,
yes, only 5% went to university, that's why |

End QE and install a new governor of the B of E who is against emergency interest rates. 2. Level the playing field for tax to remove BTL subsidy. 3. Give a parcel of government land to everyone with planning permission to build. 4. Scrap housing benefit. 5. Put treble council tax on second plus homes. 6. Ban new foreign ownership. 7. Cut unskilled immigration to virtually zero. |

By:
The figures I quoted were 18-24. So that is approximately half of that age group. I've no figures for 18-35. Nevertheless I'm well aware there will be some correlation between age and degree level of education.

Lol PP, how ridiculous.

Far easier just to let the Traveller Community move in next door.

By:
We have to verify the figures and where they come from before we start drawing any assumptions.
So much of this stuff is phoney that it's a waste of time trying to understand it. |
|
By:
?
|
|
By:
you compared those with degrees and how they voted
and those with GCSE or lower qualifications and how they voted that as I have said is dependent on the history of Britain, it is inevitable and meaningless unless you factor in that the vast majority of older people left school at 16 or even 14 |

By:
Millions now told they can't afford to buy a house, so are forced to buy one for someone else by paying extortionate rents.
|
|
By:
Surely they didn't ask everyone in the country who voted in the referendum?
Because no one asked me how I voted. So where did the figures come from? |
|
By:
Housing is a huge problem in this country, particularly in the south. Decades of under investment, higher divorce rates and an increase in population through life expectancy and immigration.

By:
immigration pushes down wages, how does immigration lead to higher house prices?
|

By:
Dr C. It's all based on sample sizes and mathematical confidence levels.
