The truth is that Rishi Sunak is very happy to sacrifice the young to bad outcomes because he doesn’t think they’ll vote for him anyway so he can punch down without fear of electoral impact.
Young people don’t vote in big enough numbers for parties to care about them. So they just appease pensioners because they’re the ones who are going to get them into power or keep them in power.

This applies to most parties tbh.

You’re not wrong. If young people turned out every election then things might change.
Source- former stupid nonvoting till 22 kid. And i was even ahead of my cohorts.
Turn out for one of the parties punching down on them? Can’t imagine why they haven’t done it. Total fucking mystery.

Things are getting worse because Boomers keep voting for people who campaign on fucking over anyone younger than 65.
