  • I am not sure the waiting thing will work. I think the data shows that people become more likely to vote Conservative as they get older, and that trend is pretty consistent over time.

    For example, an average 35 to 40-year-old probably voted for Labour in 1997, and probably voted for the Tories in 2019.

    The current working-age population might defy the historic pattern, but I am not sure why that would be the case.

  • but I am not sure why that would be the case.

    Because we can't afford houses

  • But was that because they were so pissed off with labour for Iraq/Afghan war, or is it because as you get older you become a gammon?

    I feel like I identify with labour/greens and wouldn’t consider conservatives as an option, they’re all cunts and have been for a long time.

    That's the Tories current challenge summed up, and Labour's to be fair.

    It's suggested that income / wealth is a confounding factor - As people get older, they get richer, and they are all greedy fucks that then vote for their own best interests.

    The older / righter paradigm might fall apart if people aren't getting better off as the age.

    So all the Tories need to do is not austerity everyone to death too much, and leave them with just enough folding to want to vote for the wosrtcunt in the room.
