afraid cameron demonstrated his stupidity or maybe just arrogance
a quick poll would have demonstrated that the young overwhelmingly love an open EU ....so why did he block 16 year olds from getting the vote [ as they did in the scottish referendum for example ]
plenty of examples of referendums in other countries , some binding , some not as in the uk ; but the one thing they have in common is that , for example , 20million and 1 is not carried versus 20 million; 60% and 66% are the common figures used , some with a minimum percentage of voters having voted
anyone know if the voting was done on the same basis as parliamentary seats so that MP's know how their constituency went ? this has to pass the house of commons yet ....it ain't over until the fat lady sings and MP's won't vote against their electors , will they !
