Please don't let the truth get in the way of hysteria.bit of fake news in the headline
i took the survey data age distribution plus the national death statistic, plus 72.2% of people voted, you get figures of
upto end 2018
approximately
404,000 remain votes have died
683,00 leave voters have died
difference of 278,000
Can you predict how long it will be before the demographic favours the remoaners and what will be the state of EU finances when that point is reached? Don’t spend too much time working out the answer because it won’t change anything one iota, much as their pointless ramblings do.bit of fake news in the headline

1. The UK Prime Minister did a deal with the EU which the government rejected, why send someone to do a deal without the authority to complete it, the UK is the one that is being intransigent, as for arrogance don't get me started, no one can do arrogance like the Brits, in particular the Brexitears, just look at the comments " They need us more than we need them" "We have the highest welfare standards in the world" "Our regulations are higher than anyone else". that arrogance has delayed a trade deal with Japan.Well the essence of the thread is an implication that should a second ref. happen, we would vote remain due to people dying. There is no science behind it at all other than 'most oldies voted to leave' and so on. My point is that there is no way of telling what would happen. Personally I think the Leave margin would be greater for a few reasons:
1. We have now seen how intransigent and arrogant the EU truly are.
2. We are seeing their economies heading toward recession.
3. We thought we were a democracy and yet many of our elected politicians have completely abandoned the manifesto they were elected on. People are angry out there. Even Remain voters. I speak to an awful lot of them every day and I never start the convo but it always comes up.
4. The assumption that all young folk want to remain is nonsense in my view. Certainly the ones I talk to and I am in probably the most alternative town in the UK.

thats a different question as you keep adding a new years worth of 18 year olds,
2020 best guess, not long, assuming no-one changed their minds lol,
but depends on how likely 18 years are to register to vote and how likely they are to vote, both of which i dont know. so used the average 92% of adults registered to vote and %72 of those bothered to vote in
each year
leave, 380k 19-100+ voters die and gain 145K new 18year old leave voters
remain, 224K 19-100+ voters die and gain 356K new 18 year old leave voters
but 18 year olds dont vote/register in those numbers,
and people do change their minds
Who wants to run the clock down then?so your calculations arrive at the date of 2020
same as that predicted in the Newsnight video in my opening post. So what gives with your earlier 'fake news' comment when you've basically agreed with the synopsis

Because only 760k leave voters have died not 1.4 million
There are so many ifs and buts in all these calculations. Why bother. As Mark Twain said "There are three types of lies, lies, damned lies and statistics".you stated earlier that your numbers went up to the end of 2018. The 1.4 million is to present day
I also suspect you're using the overall death rate stat from England & Wales only, and not the UK, which of course also includes Scotland and Northern Ireland
Whatever the case, you've crunched your own set of numbers and have broadly speaking arrived at the same outcome as the Newsnight clip and the video posted by Cowabunga
BREAKING: UK Govt have just admitted there isn't enough time to conclude a FTA with Japan or Turkey before 29/3/19
"We will not transition this agreement for exit day"
I feel an Article 50 extension is in the works
brace, brace.
Leave voters may be having less heart attacks than remainers, therefore living longer.Because only 760k leave voters have died not 1.4 million
Because only 760k leave voters have died not 1.4 million
with any luckBut they might all come back and vote again.
