Ten years after Brexit, many young voters in Britain think rejoining the European Union is a good idea.
"Many young voters" think spending beyond their means is a "good idea"... because YOLO and FOMO!
They think BNPL or maxing out and paying monthly minimum on their credit cards is a "good idea"... until they find themselves in financial trouble.
They think getting their knowledge on TikTok or Insta or other social media is a "good idea."
"Many young voters" think that what politicians promise is "for real" and a "good idea" because they are economically illiterate and don't know better... then, after an election or two, they grow up. Then again, some never grow out of "good ideas" and carry their fantasies into adult life despite those having been debunked and proved categorically wrong in the past, because they can't accept having been duped by politicians,.
Particularly in Britain, that just has proved that Labour has no "better ideas" on how to fix UK's recent social and economic problems than Tories, and flipping the government every couple of years didn't work, "many young voters" are now thinking that voting for a fascist party and giving them a chance to govern is also a "good idea."
One reason for this sad state of affairs is due to the stupidity of EU politicians, behaving like jilted lover/spouse, attempting to "punish UK" for Brexit and taking time to re-establish trading agreements, instead of fixing their own issues which created impetus for Brexit in the first place, at the cost to economies of both UK and, even more so, EU.
As I've pointed out here (drudge.com - Exceptionalism Can Be Lonely -- Ask Britain), UK has done significantly better economically "under Brexit" than EU, partly because it's the European country that's already had the lowest exports into EU and more trade with US and other world destinations than EU.
So Trump's "economic wars" against the world, including EU and UK, affects them more... for now... and it also may affect "many young voters"... for now.
None of the issues that afflict Britain - like social issues or broke and broken "world class free and universal healthcare" NHS (last guy hired to fix it quit before one year on the job... and now, of course, is running for Parliament) - are going to be solved by re-joining the EU and having to bend to additional red tape and layers of rules and laws (like some "green laws" that hampered economies in both EU and UK) coming from equally or even more dysfunctional EU.
Opinion polls from "young voters" in general, and even more, recently - when they are pretty isolated from real life by a 'digital media wall' - are not reliable and a poor predictor of general electoral mood or outcome. Democrats in the US found that out the hard way in recent presidential, and especially midterm, elections.

Dummkopf Trumpf posted this about his wasteful billion dollar a day war against Iran on behalf of Israel (who is now saving their manpower and funds, unlike the US):
"Afghanistan War: 20 years, 2,000 DEAD. Iraq War: 9 years, 4,600 DEAD. Vietnam War: 19 years and 5 months, 58,220 DEAD. Korean War: 3 years and 1 month, 36,574 DEAD. Venezuela War: 1 day, 0 DEAD. Iran Military Conflict: 4 months, 18 DEAD."
The demented altakaker is proud that this quagmire which is bankrupting the US economy has only killed 18 US Servicemembers so far, not counting the innocent civilians he murdered or the environmental catastrophe he caused in Iran.
