    I broadly agree. If a new party was going to grow, I do think it would need a strong youth bent. While young people may not have the numbers for electoral victory in a two party, one politics state there’s impact to made there.

    But the main reason I think that is because the stranglehold of the media on British politics is not just cursed, but stronger than anywhere else I’ve seen personally. And people under 30 are basically the only section of society that aren’t completely captured by it and, thanks to growing up online, are more discerning in general when it comes to media and propaganda I think.
