Barometer Survey shows the over 50s have strong views about BrexitAs a British/Irish citizen (with a Lithuanian partner), born in England [educated half in Ireland and half in England], resident in Ireland for going on 30 years, I am strongly in favour of remaining in E.U. - for personal reasons (obviously !) but also because I believe that continued membership, and in fact closer integration generally is to the long-term benefit of Britain, Ireland [incl. Northern Ireland], Lithuania & the Baltic States and Europe as a whole; economically, security considerations [especially re Russia]; socially and in the interests of the broad mass of ordinary citizens. That is if they rationally and intellectually consider, rather than knee-jerk emotionally all that is at stake !. One last point, all U.K. Passport holders, not just citizens up to 15 years outside U.K., should have a vite !.
