...Andrew Byrne, 24, is handing out bright green lollipops to passersby. Byrne is a member of Generation Yes, an independent, pro-Lisbon campaign group targeting young voters. In the last referendum, 18-to-25-year-olds had the highest proportion of no votes of any age-group. Handing a leaflet to an undecided young mother, Byrne tells her that the treaty will help tackle human-trafficking and improve energy security in Europe. The woman appears unmoved.

...listen to their doctors, but also that they actually use the information. In fact, a brief warning about consistent use is almost certain to sail over the disinterested patient’s head, while those with a genuine desire for information can easily ask their pharmacist, or read the leaflet that comes with every pill package.
