It's funny how often what's best for young people is to cut their benefits, mental health services and support for educational funding whilst increasing the amount given out for pensions isn't it?
Although there are exceptions the evidence suggests demographics as a whole vote in their own best interest. Young people vote for parties that'll make university cheaper, Older people vote for parties which will increase their pensions. It would be better to be honest about that rather than pretend it's altruistic.
