Wherever do you find such hard-hitting journalism, Brillo. I was shook to my core by this well-written, thoroughly researched piece, I have to say.
The figures came from YouGov - a site whose figures/charts have been quoted by many from the Labour camp on here. Either they are legitimate or they aren't - you can't just accept them when they suit.

I didn't say anything about the figures, I was just lamenting whichever horrible angry little trog wrote the article

I pointed out that the youth turnout figures weren't as originally reported, and indeed not as crucial to Labour's unexpected performance in this post:

You spent several days denigrating the young for voting for 'freebies', then when I pointed out that actually according to YouGov's analysis, the majority of those under 50 voted for Labour, you argued that these figures couldn't possibly be correct and no one could know. And now you're using those very figures - that I've already drawn attention to and you've criticised - to accuse 'Labourites' (this isn't even a thing) of falling for 'fake news'. Make your mind up.

Again, does anyone on this forum read people's posts properly?
