    I would change just one word of that Chris, 'Older folk also tend to be more set in their ways and less amenable to change, because of their wealth of experience.

    Have the young for instance, taken into account the fact that there will be a power vacuum created on the abolition of the monarchy, and have they considered just who, or what, may fill that vacuum, have they considered that it may not be an institution as benign as our monarchy ?

    A wealth of experience teaches one that there is merit in the old saying,

    for fear of finding something worse.'

    I think, that many..... like routine, live routines....are safe with repeats, unquestioning and removed from anything but the given reality, it makes them feel safe, so trust it, are habituated to it, it's familiar, so think of it/them as a friend....not realising - they've been suckered.

    think...When the Wind Blows.
