There are an increasing number of old voters and they are more likely to vote, or at least they were in the past. I believe this has been the position for a long time, hence the old adage if you aren't a socialist when you're 18 you have no heart. But if you're not a Conservative by the time you're 30 you haven't got a head. The Conservatives had better hope that voters preferences continues to change as they get older otherwise Labour will be in the driving seat in a few years.
I think there is every reason to believe things will change. Brexit is a defining moment. Most young people did not want to leave the EU and many Conservative voters have been put off by the party's enthusiasm for a hard Brexit so the Conservatives should begin to worry.
