Pensioners explain why they have saved Britain's youth from themselves

Not as funny as those who thought LEAVE meant, quite literally, voting to make the UK leave the EU.

Probably not until the Chunnel looks like this again...

From a friend:

True story.
My mum lives in a retirement home where many of the residents are 80-90 plus years old. sitting round a table for afternoon tea the ladies were talking about the referendum,the old dear on the right of my mum said "I'm voting in because that Boris is voting in...isn't he? " the lady on the left of my mum couldn't remember if she had voted or not .....explains a lot!
Bless them

My 73 yr old Mum (who voted Remain) tells me people in her lunch club thought LEAVE meant, quite literally, voting to make immigrants leave.

Can't be bothered what thread this goes in, but don't jump to conclusions:

Lough Neagh is both a hotbed of brexiteers and bovine spongiform encephalopathy?

Interesting theory.

It is indeed:

Jubilant Leave voter ‘will catch up with the financial news later’

Which CUK poster do we think that is?

There's moe than one CUK poster who fits that description ....

In Waitrose yesterday, an older lady asked me to reach up and get a "Mail" for her.
I told her to be sure to read the bit that said what Brexit would mean for her pension.

As long as she gets it in pounds, shillings and pence, who cares?

Sharp drop in number of old ladies being helped across the road

THE number of old ladies being helped to cross British streets has plummeted since Friday.

Across the country, elderly women on pavements have found it harder to appeal to the kindness of a young passer-by.

Seventy-nine-year-old Margaret Gerving, from Bristol, said: “I started off looking a bit helpless and then actively requested assistance. The first two young people ignored me. The third one said I should ‘phone Michael Gove’ and the fourth one told me to ‘piss up a rope’.

“They’re just assuming I voted ‘Leave’. They’re absolutely right, but they should at least ask me first.

“Young people in this country really don’t care about the interests of the elderly.”

Gerving added: “Eventually this Romanian chap helped me across the road. I made sure I kept a tight hold on my shopping bag.”

YIZ DESERVE IT SAYS RED HAND PENSIONERS

In a straw poll outside an old people’s home in Cappagh, Tyrone’s pensioners have revealed a list of reasons why they voted en masse to leave the EU – twerking, texting, sexting, the Kardashians, Chris Evans, chewing gum, bad punctuation, public affection, tattoos, mumbling, nicknames, video games, rap music, alcopops.

“Yiz deserve it,” added a 98-year old from Galbally, before asking what the question was.
