So if young people didn't want Brexit

[runaway hero]

Why didn't they vote? If you want your voice heard, then vote.

1. Did they not vote?

I haven't seen an age breakdown.

[HuckleB]

2. Do you have data showing that they did not vote?

3. Really sick of the ageism on DU.

58% of those 25-34 DID vote. Only 36% of those <25.

Yes, it could have been better. But many did care, and your broad brush is disgusting.

4. 64% of those under the age of 25 didn't vote?

The OP appears to have facts on their side.

[JonLeibowitz]

7. 64% of those under the age of 25 not voting doesn't mean young ppl didn't vote

The numbers prove you are wrong.

Also I note you ignore the 25-34 cohort.

9. The sun is blue, I guess.

5. Is this judging British young voters by U.S. Standards?

I think the turn out was around 77% so I'm wondering what was the demographic of the 23% that did not vote.

6. It was raining. That's the excuse they are giving on the news.

8. More like "there were torrential downpours, floods and severe travel disruption" (in London, anyway)

10. Since London strongly favored Remain, that probably did have a big influence.

It never should have been a simple majority vote for such a momentous decision. Things like this should require a super majority decision.

[Spider Jerusalem]

11. Turnout in London was 59% (nationally it was 72%)

12. Thank you.

13. Yeah, f**k the young, right?

Sheesh. When did so many Dems get so friggin' selfish?
