I HAVE lost count of all the letters in The Press written by Christian Vassie, all about the same old subject, ie his opposition to Brexit.
It is becoming rather tiresome because of his vindictive remarks about the older members of society whom he, along with that other arch remainer Vince Cable, are constantly denigrating.
His remarks about the hatred of foreigners in new clothes, that he says will fade once the older generation pass on, are not only ludicrous but highly insulting.
As Mr Vassie obviously intends to live longer than older people, I suspect that he has never experienced life outside the EU.
Perhaps it is Mr Vassie and Mr Cable who are angry and unhappy, not the older generation, because they cannot accept the result of the referendum.
It is time they stopped moaning and trying to pit the old against the young.
The older generation were told in the 1970s that they were voting for the then Common Market, not the all-encompassing EU which dictates almost every aspect of British freedoms, for which two world wars were fought so bravely by older generations, and the freedom which entitles Mr Vassie to insult his elders in print.
