Remain parties are bogged down in party politics so Remain voters will coordinate the Remain vote ourselves. We will pick a party in every area, push them for a People's Vote, get behind their campaign and make our vote count toward people's vote.

Has to be worth a try.

Thanks will check this out. Will also share it on FB. We need to mobilise (she said, bloody exhausted and no idea how it's done).

Do not lose heart. We - Remainers - are on the right side of history. You've only got to look at Farage and Rees-Mogg and Francois and Bill Cash et al to realise that, surely?

The really important thing is turnout. If you do nothing else, persuade friends and family to register and cast a vote.

A large remain turnout would totally change the arithmetic.

Yes, I bang on about voting all the time. Hope you're right about large remain turnout. Can people really not care enough to make the effort? I find that extraordinary. It's such a small thing to do.

One third of 18-35 year olds are not even registered.

If every person who went on the march prompted 5 people to register and to exercise their vote ...

How are people not registered?

Littlespaces · 20/04/2019 19:28

The trouble is that 18-24 year olds are constantly moving and away from home.

Three of mine have had to put in alternative arrangements - one a trip back from where she will be that week, one a postal vote and another one a proxy vote.

@Littlespaces , tbe 18-24 year olds I kind of get - although I managed when I was that age and lived all over the shop. But up to 35?

True. It is a shame as other people are deciding their future.

One of mine only just arranged the proxy vote in time, because of a mountain of other things going on. Exam time is probably a factor with the younger ones too.
