I am far from convinced that 1652 people being asked their age and how they
voted is going to provide sufficient data to conclude too much from.

As for the petition, timing would have been better to raise it in advance of
the vote rather than after the result is known.

The EU Referendum was likely to have a long term impact on the status of
some pan-European Safety issues. EASA was just one. There were also
discussions in progress regarding autonomous vehicles. We were involved in
many of the talks on harmonisation of European Safety Standards and had an
influence in their improvement.

The vote was close and there is a petition in circulation that calls for the
UK government to not proceed with the exit without more than a sixty percent
figure. 

Seeing the spread of opinion amongst the age ranges it is quite clear that
the elderly were the ones demanding exit whilst our youngsters were all in
favour of remaining.

I tried to find the direct source on YouGov but it is like finding a needle
in a haystack there.
