    Young people can really make a difference in this election.

    The difference being a move from tories just losing. To them failing to be the main opposition party.

    The current predictions on electoral calculus are 66 seats for the tories. 59 seats for the lib dems.

    But there are a predicted 53 seats where lib dems are predicted to land within 10 % of the tories winning.

    Young voters are generally under represented in this polling. So if you live in one of those seats. A high agreement to tactical vote among younger voters. And a higher turn out. Could be enough to turn 4 or more seats. Making the lib de,s the official opposition.

    And the tories the 3rd party.

    Personally I cannot imagine a more effective way to inform the tories they funked up with younger voters.

      And they so very badly need to learn that lesson, yes. Hopefully this nonsense motivates a new generation of young people forming a habit of voting, and of voting against the Conservative Party.
