Introduktion
While the Brexit vote was indeed a democratic decision, with 52% in favor of leaving the European Union and 48% against it, the question arises: does this outcome genuinely mirror the collective sentiment of the entire British society towards Brexit?

This inquiry delves into the concern that young people might be sidelined in the Brexit debate, considering that they are the ones who stand to bear the brunt of the negative consequences associated with a departure from the European Union.

Utdrag
Notably, British writer, illustrator, and political activist Madeleina Kay passionately describes the European Union as a beacon of "love, peace, and tolerance."

Conversely, an older generation voice joins the growing opposition to Brexit, asserting that the United Kingdom can thrive independently of the EU and characterizing the EU project as costly and unsuccessful.

This generational disparity is especially pronounced among individuals aged 60 and above, with only 40% voting to remain in the EU.

This division reflects a contrast between nationalistic and internationalistic perspectives, with the majority of those under 24 leaning toward the latter.

The argument for granting greater influence to young people in the Brexit vote arises from their unique generational experience.

Raised during a period of accelerated globalization, they have grown accustomed to the idea of studying and working across Europe, identifying themselves as European citizens, or even as both British and European.
