Going (back) to university

Every younger person and children all were. Interesting, isn’t it?

How odd.
All the older, rule-defying people seem to live in the areas where these young Gransnetters live!
And all the perfect young people live in those areas too.

There are rule breakers in every generation.

This is a photo from today's anti-mask/anti-vaxx/covid is a hoax/anti George Soros/pro conspiracy theory demo in Trafalgar Square today.

Let's play "spot the student". If you get bored with that, you could play "spot the female".

Maybe there are opportunities for Specsavers!

Yes, there are idiots or selfish people in all generations.

However, I am rather confused that a forum which is mainly for older people is being taken over by younger people whose aim seems to be to castigate the older generation.

I'm not a younger person by any means. However, I dislike hypocrisy and smugness, whoever perpetuates it. I also dislike division, blame cultures and parochialism. How about some solidarity?

Yes I spent quite a lot of time playing spot the female when the BNP (or whatever they are calling themselves these days) protests were going on.

How about some solidarity?

loads of oldies with disposable income to spend on booze (when they're not in their holiday home)
Maybe their grannies could start by setting a good example.

Solidarity would be good, wouldn't it, not intergenerational conflict.

It appears that there's a resident of Bolton who's not very popular. I have no idea if he's a student, but he went on a pub crawl after failing to quarantine after returning from holiday.

Interestingly, the local knuckle draggers initially tried to blame the Bolton spike and lockdown on Asians.

Yes

Not inter-generational, cultural, North vs South or anything else.

It's quite sad how it's descended into divisive bickering and blaming.

PS. I was being ironic. I just wish people would look at themselves before they start blaming others.

Wouldn’t it just.

Maybe you could start? Assuming posters who see different things than you are “younger” (with a definite attitude towards it- true or not!) would be a great first step
