I know it’s spiteful, but I can never find it in me to vote Liberal after what happened with tuition fees. But I guess we’re talking about people so young that they have zero recall of that.
Labour vote will be split between independents, Greens, LibDems and lots of small ultra leftwing communist/socialist parties, giving Reform the government in the next election.
wow I can’t believe the strategy of pushing young voters away has resulted in pushing young voters away. more 4d chess political genius from centrist daddy.
Shouldn’t have highjacked labour to turn them into Tories then.
If Libdems and Labour can work together I don’t care which one wins
Tories and reform are dogshit
I mean, this was always on the cards.
What even the Labour Party seems to forget is that, for me and a lot of people my age, the big push to vote them in wasn’t about loyalty. It was about a lifetime under Conservatives who have consistently made things worse for us.
We voted for change, not because we were blindly red the way some people are blindly blue because “it’s how they’ve always voted.” This neoliberal, austerity-fuelled government is not the change we were sold.
So of course young voters are abandoning Labour in droves. You haven’t earned that loyalty yet. It honestly feels like, at this point, all a government would have to do to win over this generation for life is make us economically stable and self-sufficient.
Whatever party finally lets me buy a house on me and my partner’s fairly modest income; I will probably vote for them for the rest of my life, horrific crimes notwithstanding.
That’s just how it is.
Can’t imagine why anyone would be willing to vote for any of the majority parties to be honest. It’s a least bad choice, and atm it’s probably lib dem, which is a wasted vote in my area, so… Back to labour.
You can’t abandon a party outside an election. None of this matters until it’s proven at the polls in 4 years time.
I can safely say as a trans person Starmer seriously shit the bed with LGBT voters. He should have sacked Wes Streeting months ago. He fucked it so badly a lot of pride festivals don’t even let you fly labour flags.
It’s going to be really difficult to persuade queer voters not to vote Green next time around.
Kier Starmer needs to stop desperately trying to get the votes of the people who will NEVER vote for him and concentrate on the people who would and have voted for him. That’s the biggest mistake he’s making
It’s wild how short political memory can be, but then again, if all you’ve known is betrayal from both major parties, why *wouldn’t* you jump ship to someone new?
Both Labour and Tories are now two branches of the Pensioner’s party.
Retired person with 35,000 annual income -> gets winter fuel allowance.
Working person with 35,000 annual salary -> gets jack shit
Retired person gets a triple locked pension adjusted for inflation every year.
Working person gets tax brackets frozen for 5+ years while inflation-adjusted we’re all poorer than we were in 2019.
Why exactly should young people support either of these parties? And where exactly does Labour help working people?
I wouldn’t vote for the Lib Dems if I was paid to. I hope Nick Clegg rots. Made a ball of promises and then dropped his trousers and spread his cheeks for Cameron.
Easy way for Labour to tackle this, bring in ranked choice voting
Reform about to swoop in like Orange man did in the US. This is beyond fucked.
I have issues with clicking on any link to the Express so I’m wondering who the parties are? Reform is the depressingly obvious pick but is the other… Green?
Who will vote for Labour? They abandoned their historic core vote. The same question is true of the tories, who also abandoned their historic core vote.
The fact soo many people are willing to vote for a man Who wanted to work with the Russians over the Salisbury Poisoning. Wants arms to Ukraine to stop (Kinda like Trump.. odd) and has been a eurosceptic for decades and was especially weak during the Brexit campaign to really put his best effort forward to push remain as the right choice.
This country has lost it’s mind whether that be voting reform which holds views on Ukraine what would result in the same thing, wants to cosy up to Trump and follow his leadership. Give huge tax cuts to the most wealthy and cut services to their core. Hate’s the EU and will push us away from them. With little care for fallout after their one term.
Both those factions make Labour and hell the Lib Dems look like fucking diamonds and that is saying something.
I am one of those voters, I voted for Corbyn in 2019 which was my first GE but under Starmer the party has become Centre Leaning Right with U Turn after U turn. So last GE I voted Lib Dem as they had better stances on welfare, EU relations and voting reform. I dont think Starmer is as bad as people try to make him out to be but he is a terrible Labour leader.
I’ve lost my job as a direct consequence of Labour policies, and the impact it’s had on the job market means I’m looking at a long period of downtime before finding another role.
Wanted to see about moving into teacher training, but the routes are confusing and seems more difficult than it should be to find placements in my area.
I’m already pleading with my Labour leaning friends to not run to Reform!
I will be 40/41 when the next GE comes around, I have voted for Labour in every national and local election for the past 20 years, as a blue-collar bisexual who will never be able to own my home they have nothing left for me to vote for.
After everything ive seen i shall never vote for Labour ever again, i wanted a change from the tories not tories 2.0 but worse.
A successful mission by Russian agents and/or useful idiots
To attract younger voters, labour needs to sell hope.
The fastest way is to sort out the cost of living and housing crisis. I’m not a politician, so I don’t have any suggestions for how to do that, but younger people need to feel they have some kind of future that’s not blowing all their wages on rent and bills.
