1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:10,860
it was one of mr. Salmons works it was a

2
00:00:04,350 --> 00:00:15,540
wheeze of his 24 once only cut the

3
00:00:10,860 --> 00:00:20,310
voting age from 18 to 64 the purposes of

4
00:00:15,540 --> 00:00:23,449
this referendum he thought that young

5
00:00:20,310 --> 00:00:28,140
people were foolish enough to fall for

6
00:00:23,449 --> 00:00:30,890
the hand and roar now i'm following the

7
00:00:28,140 --> 00:00:34,520
opinion polls in this referendum with

8
00:00:30,890 --> 00:00:38,579
even greater interest than i normally

9
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:41,700
follow such things and one of the most

10
00:00:38,579 --> 00:00:45,390
significant and for me inspiring things

11
00:00:41,700 --> 00:00:49,289
is that the youngest voters are the

12
00:00:45,390 --> 00:00:52,890
least likely to say yes to alex salmond

13
00:00:49,289 --> 00:00:57,210
and his works and i have asked myself

14
00:00:52,890 --> 00:01:02,780
many times both how come some and got

15
00:00:57,210 --> 00:01:05,519
that so wrong and two yr young people in

16
00:01:02,780 --> 00:01:09,119
larger numbers than any other part of

17
00:01:05,519 --> 00:01:12,210
the demographic in this contest so

18
00:01:09,119 --> 00:01:16,080
strongly against independence young

19
00:01:12,210 --> 00:01:22,320
people know better than anyone knows the

20
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:26,759
boundaries borders barriers obstacles to

21
00:01:22,320 --> 00:01:30,000
communication to relations are very last

22
00:01:26,759 --> 00:01:32,009
year many of you though you're probably

23
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:35,640
not allowed to do so during the school

24
00:01:32,009 --> 00:01:38,490
day we'll have been tweeting or reading

25
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:41,299
the tweets facebooking or reading the

26
00:01:38,490 --> 00:01:43,350
facebook messages or otherwise

27
00:01:41,299 --> 00:01:45,600
communicating through the internet

28
00:01:43,350 --> 00:01:49,430
through the ether which of course knows

29
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:53,299
no boundaries or borders of any kind

30
00:01:49,430 --> 00:01:58,290
with people from all over the world and

31
00:01:53,299 --> 00:02:02,790
for young people the idea not only of

32
00:01:58,290 --> 00:02:06,750
having to live with the borders that do

33
00:02:02,790 --> 00:02:11,940
already exist in the world to actually

34
00:02:06,750 --> 00:02:13,319
willfully create a new one in a small

35
00:02:11,940 --> 00:02:16,049
island

36
00:02:13,319 --> 00:02:18,739
of english-speaking people is just

37
00:02:16,049 --> 00:02:18,739
bonkers
