I got the information from here that's all about the young vote https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cly9rlj94x1t

So it?s an anecdote with no scientific support. Fair enough but when I offer anecdotes they are dismissed, not usually by you I?ll add but it is a fact. Thanks at least for identifying your source.

I suspect those in Cornwall, London and a number of major cities may disagree.
Agree, ‘Welshness’ was a significant factor yesterday, but that doesn’t disprove Sith’s theory that the youth vote was also important…unless you actually KNOW differently about the Caerphilly demographic, which I doubt you do.

I don?t KNOW and as I?ve just pointed out neither does Sith

I think that the source is a strong one, and whittle himself mentioned the young vote in his acceptance speech gives the claim a degree of credibility. People on the ground clearly feel confident enough to state it in print or on record during a speech.

It's certainly stronger than repeating anedecdotal information obtained from a bloke down the pub.

With all due respect, I feel the BBC reporting that there appeared to be ‘an unexpectedly strong turnout from younger voters’ and that they represent the ‘cohort who are most opposed to Brexit’ and the ‘cohort who are least likely to vote for Reform’ is information of rather more value than your own (sometimes) provenly flawed anecdotes.

Proven when?

Oh come on, AF. We’re not going there again are we? I’ll just remind you of your passport and flag anecdotes, not to mention the numerous occasions when Swale has taken you to task and exposed your inaccuracies/exaggerations. Enough said, I think.

The point is that Sith’s observation came from a reputable source and most of us regard the BBC as being rather more reliable than the AFBC.

You reckon? You might regret that assertion. His Dad was a toolmaker, you know? Well actually his Dad owned a factory that made tools to be more precise.

Oh proven by Swale disagreeing. So I say again, proven when? And how, and by whom?
