Brexit proves that some issues should not be decided by referendum

Referenda are usually a good policy for the population to vote whether they want something or not. However, not in this case. The bare majority of Britain voted for the United Kingdom to leave the European Parliament and so the Brexit is about to take place in the next few years. It seems that some important facts (or even countries) were not taken into consideration during the Referendum, for instance Scotland and Northern Ireland.

Scotland and Northern Ireland are suffering now, even though the large majority of the people in those countries voted against the Brexit. This proves that certain matters should not be generalized in a Referendum. Badly affected by the results, the Scottish and Northern Irish are desperate to find a way out of this mess and hopefully they will find their way out of it.

One fact that can clearly be said is that most of the people who wanted to remain in the E.U. were those of the younger generation. The older generation voted to leave. It is disturbing and sad to see that the younger have to carry this load on their shoulders. They and all of United Kingdom have to live with the decision until the next referendum, in perhaps 20 years.
