The boomers will be comfortably dead whilst the millennials contend with the effects of this attempt to freeze British culture in the 1950s. I’ve been disappointed at the way both campaigns have been handled, so just wanted. Still seems so bizarre that a few year after Bob put out Like a Rolling Stone, he’d be releasing THIS as a single 1 / 2. He also spoke about the Who’s future, why he. Rock legend Roger Daltrey explains why hes voting to Leave - and hes not just talking for his Generation.

I feel that this was a betrayal of the younger generation by the older. A couple of months ago, Daltrey phoned up Rolling Stone for a Last Word interview to discuss the many lessons he’s learned during his long life.

Plus the multiple effects of borders, red tape and diminuition of opportunity that borders create. Millennials are now left with an economic, social and cultural insularity that they do not want and now have to contend with.

The brexit vote exposed sharp voting divisions between Boomers and millennials. It has crystallized in many minds the leftist values of big government and human dependence on government with the end game being at all times dependent on government. What's more, the younger generation grew up in a multicultural era with no borders between Britain and Europe and were comfortable with the European project. This radicalization drive of Marxist driven politics and social ideals in the western world goes back to at least the 1960’s.

The sad part of Brexit is that Daltrey's generation reaped the economic and cultural benefits of the European Union, such as open free markets, whilst bemoaning the cultural change it wrought (immigration, multiculturalism and industrial/socialchange brought about be the end of the protectionism era). I am a Gen x and not British so have no 'skin in the game' but have been an interested observer.

No artist is going to be the person you want them to be so it is a poor idea, IMO, to idolise your musical heroes.ĭaltrey is part of the post-war generation that was culturally convinced of British superiority within Europe, influenced by historical cultural norms (nationalism) and the feeling of insularity created by the recent European war. You have to learn to separate people from their art. Daltrey, an honorary patron of the charity, said late diagnosis, misdiagnosis and terrible tragedies are a result of problems with our health service.
