Youth Vote in Britain

The General Election humiliation of Theresa May in 2017 demonstrated that there is a new generation of more political aware younger people who are fed up with seeing their opportunities diminish and are willing to do something about it. The Youth Vote in Britain is probably a backlash of the Brexit Vote, which seemed to have been as a result of older voters imposing their will on future generations. Also set against a backdrop of a lack of opportunities in Britain for the younger generations who are facing lack of home ownership opportunities, increases in zero hrs contracts and low wages.
