Although I've heard it said more than just a few times since the referendum, and on several occasions during the run up to it, by Remain enthusiasts, that certain groups of voters shouldn't have been allowed to paticipate.
It's mostly the younger student voters voicing the opinion that older voters should be disqualified from taking part.
Their basis for this is that the older generation tended to vote Leave in higher numbers and that it was their future that was being stymied, as they see it, by the more mature voter.
If that ain't a classic case of age discrimination I don't know what is! :lol
