[Closed] A new political class

My kids 25,23,19,18 have historically been non political- they all voted to remain and are more than slightly annoyed - angry would best describe it. Now they don't really have a view on old school politics (don't really know who Thatcher, Blair etc are) so they don't have a left/right political view. They now have no time or respect for the perceived mass voters (pensioners, benefits class, non graduates in many cases) who took Europe away from them. It should be noted they are a significant number of them and they recieve on the whole little or nothing in the way of benefits (quite the opposite as many have student debt) They were not quite strong enough to swing the vote in the referendum however this is not the case in a general election as proportional representation means nothing. So it's 2017 and the Tories win a landslide with a combination of Brexit and the new political class - step forward to 2021 and tax receipts are on there arse, unemployment and low pay no progression jobs are the norm for the new political class who are now on the whole 30 years old- when the Tory Government of he day says we must cut pensions/benefits back to subsistence living are the new political class going to rise up and defend the old and unemployed? Like **** are they The UK has changed politically but not in the way the a Brexiteers expected
