Geldof says Farage, Gove and Johnson 'robbed young of their future'

Bob Geldof told the protesting crowd today that the leader’s of the Leave campaign ‘robbed the young of their future’.

He also urged young people not to put their thoughts on Twitter but to come out and voice their concerns.

Bob said: “Venting on Twitter is only putting it into the ethos.

“You need to come out. For the young whose future was robbed by Farage and Gove and Johnson.”

He added: “This is not the generation we build for you. We wanted you to have the world. You deserve the world. From my lot - oh shame on you. Shame on you for taking the lives that we enjoyed that was given to us by previous great generations.

“This whole thing was his idea [points at statue of Churchill] - 1946 in Zurich - he said the only way we will stop fighting is if we bind together. He called it a Unity of European states. This political giant against the likes of Gove and Johnson? Please.

“Winston Churchill would have never voted against our children’s future.

“Show me a parent or an adult who doesn’t want the young to get better. But more than that, aside from the lies, as our economy retracts by 8% over the next 4 years, where is the money to pay for the NHS? Where is the money to pay for your pension? It will not be there.

“If you are 64 and worried and angry about what this place has done. Don’t take it out on the future - the country that gave me everything I asked for and more. I will fight for this country, and the future of it and the amazing people in it.”
