Except that most sixth formers cannot vote (only upper sixth formers born between September - November). Far bigger age generalisations can be made about the Conservative Party voters, however...

This did make me laugh! Wastemen

On the one hand, the false accusations are to be expected, but on the other you're right - it is worrying about the extent to which all parties are using this tactic. I put it down to the unshakeable belief on the part of politicians that they can perform dystopian tricks on the public, but also...

Islamophobic apologists remind me of that kid from school who abhors all notions of multiculturalism, yet claims that he will move to Australia for his plumbing job because they operate a strict points system - not noticing that he himself would not in fact qualify. Wasteman, the lot of them!

I remember a few years back when Nuneaton Town Youth team were embroiled in a racism scandal involving one of their players, who had called a member of the opposition of 'golliwog'. He was removed charged with racist abuse and had to leave. Clearly Nuneaton Town Youth team have greater integrity...

It is possible, yes. University addresses, house move etc. Anyhow, so long as there are more applications, then regardless of whether some of these of duplicates, many others will not.

It is ambiguous and no one really will know the effect until December 12th. I think there is some truth to the idea that younger voters dither a bit more, procrastinating and leaving things to the last minute. Older voters seem to be right up for it and on the ball - registering as soon as...

I accept that :shamefullyembarrased: I just think that for them, economic considerations override moral/religious/ethnic considerations and whatnot, which is fair enough. I just could not envisage myself doing that, as I personally consider wealth creation to be of less importance than other...

It's because ethnic minorities within the Conservative Party are heretical in their thinking - they want to somehow go against the grain and show their peer group that they are above them

By that logic, Mr Johnson does not either - as David Cameron seems to think.

My bad!

These kids you are referring to are all over the age of 18, so unless I've missed something (or indeed you are referring to anyone whose been a student in the past - in which case the entire population of voters), je ne comprehends pas.

I was about to say that Neil seems to be asking the right questions - not giving the interviewee questions in areas of their comfort zones - e.g. Corbyn's not getting any questions on inequality. I'm all for that, as in any mature democracy out leaders should be held accountable. Would love to...

Why do these off topic threads always result in controversy lool, jam your hype boys

Mind you these Conservative politiciansare not themselves devoid of U-Turns - Nicky Morgan went up and down the country in 2016 to adamantly argue against Brexit. Now look where she is - she could have done a Samuel Gyamih if she really believed in her own convictions; yet she decides, as with...

They are indeed - when Cov were at the Ricoh it was often remarked that the match pitch at the Higgs was better than that of the Ricoh. To be fair the standard of some training ground/under 23s pitches are quite bad in this weather. At Coventry I think they take special care to separate the...

Possibly, but I'd guess not because the Falklands had already been won by that and so despite the initial unpopularity, it was a great source of pride. The outcome of Brexit at this stage is ambiguous to say the least, and there's certainly not a unanimous verdict about its merits.

A lead of 47% may have been sufficient to hand the Tories a handsome majority to the Tories in the past, and it certainly worked in the Thatcher years where they polled around 42%, but I'm afraid that what you fail to grasp is that we are no longer in a two party system. 2017 was a slight...

You do realise that the polls say little about how seats will be allocated? Even the greatest of leads may not translate to big majorities in seats - see John Curtice. Yes I do realise what it means, and it not only the most likely outcome in the even that the Conservatives do not win a strong...

I'm happy to see how the results play out but it will, unfortunately for the stability of the country, be either a hung Parliament or the slim majority that Boris can hope for at best. The EU have said no more renegotiating. But this refers more renegotiation along the lines of the hard Brexit...
