It's a bit silly to suggest someone with a degree is better qualified to make the "right" decision.
Well of course it is. It relies on the idea that someone straight out of East London Poly with a BA in media studies is somehow better able to grasp the ramifications of geopolitics and international finance than someone with no degree who has run a successful business for 20 years. It's simply a naked attempt to undermine the validity of the vote through sheer snobbery.Originally Posted by Billy Goat Sverige
The whole problem with the whole thing is that none of us are qualified to vote on it.
Nobody knows what the outcome would be. sure there was plenty of shouting from both sides but nobody really seemed to come out with any actual facts.
Even the experts didn't have a clue.
That's the point, I think. Experts are experts on **** all, as Jake Green would say.

There really *is* such a thing, isn't there?

The whole 'we weren't qualified to make the decision' thing is a complete red herring, f. It fundamentally attacks the nature of democracy, since we aren't really 'qualified' to make any democratic decision - including who will govern us best. We make these decisions on a mixture of knowledge, prejudice, gut instinct and experience. And that's fine, because that's what democracy is.
The idea that we shouldn't vote on anything without a clear vision of how it will turn out is tantamount to saying we oughtn't be allowed to vote on anything.
Right. And we all know how *that* ends up.

All true, but imagine what the BBC reporting that will do to Charles?
I can feel Kent overflowing with outrage from here.
It's just how I felt when I voted.
I did try to look to see what info I could find. but in this case I just saw to sides calling each other liars.
Well essentially it ends up with the EU Commission.
