I do find it sad that families have been split by the vote but that is democracy.  There will always be family splits on matters great and small.  I feel that some of the 18 -24 age group reported as calling their parents fascist and stupid need to get a better grasp of the process.  Family ties should be firm enough to heal the split and allow the family to move on with respect for each others views.  I'm sure Boris and his brother will not let their referendum differences cause any permanent family rift.

As for the bigger question of whether or not the 18 - 24 age group could have changed the result if more of them had bothered to take part.  I find it rather ironic that the establishment that wanted a Remain win possibly lost because this group did not turn out.

IMO they have weakened democracy over the years precisely to get us all ready to be ruled by dictat from Brussels.  They have been quite happy with the continuing slide in turnout at elections and the lack of political involvement of younger people.  So their strategy has come back to bite them.
