probably best to provide a link and evidence rather than just a claim?

They derided Milliband NOT because he was Jewish but because he was a HOPELESS PRAT of a POLITICIAN.

i remember Milliband on a live debate saying that he would not go in to coalition with anyone ... which is ok ... and then went on to say .... even if it meant he lost the election ... and that was the moment he lost all credibility and the election ... hopeless prat

They did an article on his dead Father just to try and humiliate him.

Yes mock, the younger generation will get older and as they do so, they will change and vote for the tories. Young labour voters is not a new phenomena, it just reflects their priorities at their voting age.

As I've already said, the Tories will not win this generation over as they get older if they carry on calling them snowflakes, lazy, and make it hard for them to live in their own homes.

The Tory membership is also at an all time low, showing that yet again they're losing more popularity than when they was in charge during the late 70's and 80's.

Your comments are not reflected in the voting though. Don't be under any illusions. The result that labour got at the last election exceeded their wildest expectations because of May's mess up and they still lost. That will not repeat any time soon. Labour have to represent the whole population to win an election, and on their present course that's just not happening.

What a bizarre concept... how do you account for the 500,000 Labour membership, are you suggesting they're all under 25?

Bearing in mind that Corbyn is the Labour Leader and that abhorrent Racist Abbot has her big behind firmly wedged in one of the party's top seats, how about APPALLING LACK OF JUDGEMENT?

The idea is that as people get older and their salaries rise and they gather assets, they will become more protective of those things, and thus vote Tory for lower taxes etc.

What I'm not sure people realise is that the young people of today are going to grow up with nowt but lifelong rented accommodation, stagnant wages, and mountains of personal debt .

This is what I'm trying to say but you put it across so much better than I did.

It can be a bleak picture looking forward T.S. but I can only look back at the decades when I was growing up AND growing old, and all I see is the infinitely better standard of living EVERYONE has now and the infinitely better chances and opportunities for ANYONE to better their own personal standards IF they REALLY want to invest effort, time and hard work.

WHATEVER problems there are now - and THERE ARE plenty - life will go on and circumstances WILL improve.

I actually think we're currently in a bit of a paradoxical situation where people have both less hope and fewer real opportunities, AND YET better day to day standards of living at the same time... Which means that people seem to have a lot more, and in terms of day to day comforts DO have a lot more, and yet in other ways... Less. I suppose because day to day comforts are not really the things in life that are meaningful or fulfilling. It's a really quite complicated situation in that way.

Perhaps its just that every young generation thinks its hard done by at the time, even though standards of living are a lot better than they were when their parents were young. I mean everyone has a phone these days. To me real poverty is not being able to afford things like that but others have posted before that they think having a phone is a necessity of life and not a luxury item.
