Plus they voted for Theresa May who said that she'd 'rip up' Human Rights laws to combat terrorism which is an ACTUAL insult to all that have sacrificed and died to ensure the rights we enjoy. Try again. |

Mention immigration or terrorism and most people will be gullible enough to vote for you regardless of what you are actually saying. |

Politics and outcome doesn't need to be governed by age though, in the same way that north/south divides don't need to be the deciding factor. Also, lets highlight the most obvious example. Corbyn is approaching being 70 years old. He is past normal retirement age already and here he is championing the causes that the young demographic identify with. Politics just isn't that simple, and can't be generalised so easily. |

But your post was in response to me suggesting, that this time, a lot of the old voted with the young instead of against them.. youve fought for both sides now!

Immigration is a problem when too many with a Middle Ages mindset are squeezed into small areas among those of a modern democratic mindset. The evidence is there and we are all painfully aware of it. You can shout your opinion until you explode - it doesn't make it correct and it doesn't make everyone with a different opinion stupid. To think that is stupid. |

No I'm not because for all you know the same people might have voted the same way in 2015 but the young weren't out in force so we will never know will we

I think youth turnout was so high because they didnt feel as if they were voting against the old. The young know they live in an ageing population, and they know they'd have to vote 3:1 to outnumber them - this is impossible when the older turnout is like 80%.
But the youth didnt feel as if they were voting against them, they knew the elderly wanted their retirement, and younger adults were keen on school meals. They werent fighting against them (as much) in this election.

Though it's interesting that the percentage of 18 to 29s who voted UKIP isn't far behind the over 60s

Yeah, I think Corbyns manifesto made the young wake up a bit, and Mays manifesto made the older switch a bit.. I dont think the age divide will be massively significant this time round

Also,at the end of that war most of those who likely fought and those keeping things going at home,their families. Turned to Labour in the election of 1945,turfing out Churchill and giving Labour a landslide victory. That's what people who lived and fought during that war decided to do the moment they got the chance. |

That is silly, you can't pick and choose when it comes to Human Rights, it's all or nothing. Her words were an attack on Human Rights as a whole.
