Itโs hugely lazy ๐
There are two more โTofu eating, Guardian readingโ boomers in Cardiff who have never voted Tory and who never will vote Tory.
Two boomers who were horrified when Blair introduced university tuition fees as heโs from our generation who benefited from free tertiary education!
A generation who are blamed for brexshit when we campaigned and voted for Remain!
Itโs so lazy and it makes me furious as itโs a distraction from the real causes of the state of the UK ๐คฌ
@ChrisMayLA6@zirk.us
There is a much more interesting conversation to be had about the โeducatedโ versus the โuneducatedโ than there is about pitting generations against each other.
Take brexshitโฆif you must ๐คฆ
Every town or city in the UK with large university communities voted Remain and the number of highly educated people is a much better predictor of voter intentions than age, yet the โred topsโ prosper by setting generations against each other.
The generational argument is a distraction!
#introduction
I live with my wife and two dogs in Cardiff. I went to school in Roath Park and Llandaff and attended Cardiff University (Chemistry from 1975-1981), so I'm a dyed-in-the-wool Cardiffian!
I've been campaigning for an independent Wales since 1969 and the previous English PoW was foisted upon us!
I've worked in IT since 1981. Originally for PO/BT, then Chartered Trust, PwC, and since 1994 for myself.
I'm rugby mad and the only time my wife and I really argue is when ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ท๓ ฌ๓ ณ๓ ฟ
