    Unlike the youth of Greece, Spain and Portugal who have already had a right good kicking and absolutely no end in sight. How is that a union?

      Tories - fascists
      Labour - commies

      All them immigrants - invaders.

        It's a union that enables wealthier UK residents to buy property there and retire in a nice climate, instead of living life of survival in UK on pitiful pension with crazy high living costs.

            Yes, for younger generation EU is even more important - being outside of EU would mean that work permits will certainly be required to get any jobs there, even though for tourist purposes visa free travel will happen. So, there will be a massive limitation on what UK youth can do in the future.

              Or there might be a long overdue correction in the housing market which is far more important than a minority of our youth having to worry about work visas.

                I wonder what the unemployment rate for those youth was before the Euro, given that these were all relatively poor countries.
                Hard Brexit now!

                  I'm quite happy with the UK save for house prices and it's rather busy in the bottom righthand corner. Day-to-day living costs aren't too bad save for accommodation.

                    And why would you want to vote for a massive drop in house prices?

                    It will only happen if BoE gets rates back where they should be - 5-6%, which it might be forced to defend sterling as otherwise inflation will take off (UK imports more than exports), so if house prices drop by half with new higher interest rates they will remain unaffordable anyway, with lots of people in negative equity.

                    Is this what you voting for?

                      Yes.
