Older people are four times as likely to vote as young people, pensioners have non-means tested benefits and have suffered the least from austerity. My assertion is that this is no coincidence, and whilst compulsory voting is clearly unpopular here it might make the government give a shit about all of society, rather than only that part which is likely to re-elect them voluntarily.
