    Ehm ,,, not a second referendum like a "Brexit Referendum 2.0" for Brexit Yes or No .... it should be a referendum about Brexit with the negotiated deal or with a No-Deal as choice to vote for as media reported.

    So far no bad idea such a sort of referendum im my opinion, because the British Parliament shows that they are too incompetend and stupid to decide this with any sort of majortiy.
    So why not this way then ... pure democracy by the UK people to decide .... and so we can have finally the Brexit and having not further this fu***ng UK self-blockade to leave ...

    I must agree too ...

    The children have had a new disease for several years ... ADHD = Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.

    Funny ... I am now 48 years old and when I was a child there was no such disease. When I look at the symptoms of this new disease, they are already familiar to me. However, in the end there was a very good medicine from the parents in my time, when it became too strong ... and which always worked:

    A slap ... after warning!

    Woops ... ADHD was gone at the kid! ;-) :-D

    Today ... as father or mother you must be careful not to be put on court then with this vintage medicine!

    I think it was invented by the middle class in order to make sense of the fact that children were acting...well...like children rather than having to actually parent their naughty offspring. Rather than discipline children it was much easier for them to invent a "syndrome" which could be chemically treated instead of admitting that they were god awful parents....Stepford Children....:hiding:

    But the millennial kids are acting so strangely as well; I get around a lot and see it all the time - not the least of it being the way (it used to be just females, but now it's males too, and sometimes in the case of the 'noughties' parents, their kids) hack out their denim trousers. I've tried to justify what's behind the practice and can't come up with anything. I mean, that one woman should look at her jeans one day and suddenly think 'I know what I'm going to do now, I'm going to slash my jeans from top to bottom.' is one thing, but for it to catch on worldwide is truly bizarre. I wish that I weren't so observant then I wouldn't notice this kind of stuff. And yet they're usually so intelligent, that's the really weird thing.

    Dude, ripped jeans are a personal choice which is legal in this freedom of ours.
    The Millennial Generation get the vote, it's the way. They're no different in that regard than anyone who came before them and anyone who'd come after, we all get a vote.
    I don't need Westminster telling people not to wear ripped jeans and burkas in public.
    Just saying.

    Nigel Farage's Brexit Party is going to be a runaway winner at 37%, followed by Lib Dems (19%). The polls showed that British voters want Brexit desperately and lost faith in the Tories who cannot deliver it. If there is a second referendum, it's going to be dead even at 44% for Leave and 44% for Remain.

    I am of the 68 and 70 generation.
    We acted differently, too. Long hair, the high heals, bells freid ot at the bottom, stoned washed them, batik shirts, all the very cool stuff.
    Our parents asked the same questions.

    If you have to start to question the fabs of the next generation, justify it, well, than you are real old.
    I enjoy them, some I do not like, keeps me fresh and open minded.
    Every day has to be a bright new day with a lot of changes to be discovered.

    I'm well aware of the generation gap syndrome, but you must admit that this ripping clothing to pieces then wearing it is out there on its own? I also understand that there's a premium on new jeans which have already been hacked. I mean puhlease??

    Farage just splits the voters on the right.
    Vote Farage, get Corbyn.
