We're going to stop Brexit. The Youth (the UK's Future) doesn't want Brexit. So we're doing what we do best: Asking Mum & Dad for a favour.

June Flanagan Well done for going face to face with NF on LBC. Of course he played dirty by talking over you all the time, but only to be expected from the loud-mouthed hypocrite that he is. It would be great if you could get some TV coverage - Question Time, for instance.

Iam 71 and am so pleased that the young are fighting back .I have been donating to Best for Britain I hope they will help you out financially .I believe it would be better if those of us who wish to stop Brexit united under one banner but that the young had their own section ,after all it is your future.

Yes, well done and I agree with all the comments. Can’t help noticing however, that all the comments are from older people (as I am -61). Come on all you youngsters - fight for your future!

You’re doing a brilliant job Femi - exactly the kind of spokesperson and message we need. Thanks!

A government that acts against the interests of its youth sows the seeds of political oblivion. OFOC is a wake up call for everyone, young or old, to stop this manic Brexit dash into poverty, isolation, and personal limitation and give our youth a decent future instead. I'm heartened to see pensioner support here - and I am one of them.

Not all oldies voted leave, I am 71 and regarded Brexit as a short cut to turning the UK in to a quaint theme park off the coast of Europe. Obviously there are lots of European based businesses and organisations that will be only too happy to take over Britains many roles and opportunities as we leave. Its already started. Also, it is not democratic that less than 40% of the electorate in an advisory reforendum is able to deprive us of our EU citizenship. All the best with the campaign, you need to make this change for your own futures.

I'm a British citizen now living in Thailand. I know leaving the EU will be terrible for the UK and particularly for the future of the young. I am now 60 and feel angry my European rights will be removed because of a referendum that should never have happened. Parliament and our MP's are paid to make decisions for the benefit of all not to appease one party. Our young people do not deserve this. I hope you succeed. Good luck for the sake of all British citizens.

I am 53 with a 20 yr old son. Seen your TV appearances and I am pleased there is a younger person drawing awareness to the errors of an older generation of politicians who have failed, as a collective, to sum up what it is they are getting into and why. Without clear definition of objectives and approach, painful exclusion clauses calminating into the so called divorce terms continue being persued without a collective agreement even amongst those entrusted with look in the implications and providing clear direction and strategic guidance on key stage decisions. I cannot think of anything worse. Time is ticking! How loud does one need to shout out for those entrusted with representing us all to realise that enough details have now become available and people no longer want UK to exit from critical elements of many functional areas of community for which UK has shared values and so far enjoyed enormous benefits since being an integral part of the EU. On balance UK has been a major long term social & economic beneficially. Immigrants was the trigger to Brexit. EU has clear tough measures for immigration controls but government failed to implement consequently adopting propaganda to blame the EU. It is a shame that referendum voters have ended up being spectators at their own game. The thriving social cohesion and dynamic industrial growth we have enjoyed should be a stepping stone to improvements we can work on. Too many long term social & economic benefits will suffer if the Brexit process continues unchallenged!

Hoping you succeed in your quest. All the best from a 48 yr old Londoner living in Lisbon (thanks to the EU) . Wishing opportunity for all young people in the U.K.

Great pitch, Femi. I'm happy to support you. I voted Remain and I'm 53. I am absolutely horrified by the government's refusal to acknowledge the concerns of the 48%. I also believe that Brexit is a huge distraction and drain on resources when so much else urgently needs fixing in the UK. I also believe that the UK has always had good influence in the EU and it would be a disaster to lose that.

Hilary C Well doe n Femi and team Thisis fantastic; at last the truth is being spoken: Brexit is a disaster , and youth will suffer the consequences. History will judge; did peopl just sit by and let this disaster unfold, or did they make a stand and speak the truth to power.The best economic and socail interests of the Uk lie in staying in the EU. Come on students, support this and save the country

I'm 76. It's precisely because I'm proud of being British that I passionately want to stay in the EU. It is only united with others who share our liberal values that our voice will be listened to in today's world. And as for economics why on earth would China or anywhere else want to give us better terms than we would get within the EU?

As a 51 year old disenfranchised expat I’m happy to be able to contribute for a change!

Well done, Femi! I voted Remain and I think that leaving the EU would be an utter disaster for this country. We are no longer the big world player that we were in the days of the Empire and may not ever be again. We need to accept this pragmatically instead of trying to take the UK back to its glory days. Incidentally it isn't just the young who want to stop Brexit - I'm 76 AND I live in the North East, Co. Durham to be precise!
