Do you know what depresses me more than anything, through all this referendum, the lead up to it and the aftermath; It's the concept so many people have of what democracy is.  From the now " snivelling" younger generation, saying how the older generation shouldn't have the right to determine and possibly ruin their futures.........when they've been quite happy to sponge off of them and use them as crutches, for most of their inexperienced lives. So that's the snivelling wretches idea of democracy is it, god forbid when it is eventually left in their hands.

The Scots......when we had a general election and the labour vote was all but wiped out in Scotland, that was great.  Their beloved SNP took power and control and they got what they wanted.  Now we have a referendum, one person one vote ( can't get fairer than that...........many would like to see general elections run like that ) and they don't get what they want.....they want independence. That's their idea of democracy is it.........OK when it goes your way.......don't want it when it doesn't.  You have to ask yourself if they EVER felt BRITISH and united with the rest of us, with an attitude like that. Democracy is fine, when accepted in its entirely, but too often it's talked about, but not practiced, by those who shout about it the loudest.
