I could’ve told you that in 2016! In fact, I told many people.

The headline is a little misleading on this one.
The subtitle: The UK’s disillusioned Gen Z are losing faith in democracy, survey finds
The title should be “Random assortment of unqualified gen Z were asked what they think and they think things are worse.”

You mean…. Just like the people voting Remain told you it would?
Surprise surprise… and they’ll still flock to Nigel.

I didn’t vote Brexit and don’t think think it’s been good for the UK.
But do we really need simplistic journalism like this based on yet another poll?
Independent continues its race to the bottom.

The tories made everything worse, fixed it for you.

It’s just a survey. I agree with it, but anyway I don’t think a survey proves anything

My pay has doubled, and now I owe a house, things looked very different in 2016, yes it went to hell, cause of Brexit, but let’s not pretend it was all peachy before.

Leaving that wank stain was the best decision our spineless government is the reason why everything is worse.

Gen Z who were too young to recall what it was like working and travelling with the EU… Think it’s made everything worse.
I mean yes it is… But… This is like 70yr old Right wingers who have never left the country, never worked a day in their lives, saying things are definitely better now.

Friendly reminder that in 2019, 47% of 18-24 year olds turned out to vote whilst 74% of over 65s did.
Yeah, if you’re not politically active, then of course politicians aren’t going to listen to you. Why are you surprised?
The ones who get listened to are those who advocate for themselves and vote- like homeowners, Brexiteers, pensioners etc.
Also- if you think Brexit was bad and our systems are suffering for it but still vote for Nigel Farage, then enjoy what you voted for. He thinks we didn’t do Brexit hard enough, so do not blame anyone except yourself for any adverse consequences.

Shame all the media didn’t point this out in 2016. It was always going to make everything worse…by design.

“What are you going to do, stab me?” asks man before being stabbed.

The lack of critical thinking to realise that the reason everything is worse is because of Brexit and then to vote Reform driven by the man who made it happen is literally insane.
