For citizens, 'long-term' means (1) certainty about long-term employment perspectives, (2) certainty and value of their house mortgages, (3) prospectives in paying education for their children and healthcare in older age.<br /><br />In that respect, older generations have already a picture of those long-term factors, while younger generations, due to young age, can only build prognoses - some of them might be correct, another completely wrong.<br /><br />In fact, voting for Brexit represent the general attitude to the future, where younger people tend to be more optimistic about the future than older ones who rely more on facts and experience of the past.<br /><br />However, there is one point on which all generations seem to agree: it's impossible to build long-term plans without having control over the economic and social rules that will apply in this long term. Brexit is politics directed on gaining control over long-term economic, financial, and social rules that will apply to the United Kingdom. <br /><br />Since it's a law Blog, and for Amerikat in particular, Brexit is a revision of the legal framework of cooperation with EU countries. It's in no way a step aside of this cooperation as such. Therefore, it would be beneficial for all parties to see Brexit as development for Europe rather than as any step back to the past which is just not possible.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5574479.post-22811464932235742862017-03-30T12:06:10.595+01:002017-03-30T12:06:10.595+01:00"So while a generation of stomachs continue t..."So while a generation of stomachs continue to churn in the wake of an unplanned and, for her generation, unwanted exit from the EU"<br /><br />The only age group that overwhelmingly voted remain was the 18-24 age group. I am fairly certain the Amerikat is not a part of this age group. The 25-34 and the 35-44 age groups were much more evenly split. There are and were plenty of younger people that want the UK to leave the EU. As unpalatable as it may a significant proportion of the Amerikat's generation are in favour of Brexit. Simply blaming the older generations for Brexit is not only unfair, it is incorrect.<br /><br />p.s.
