18 to 27-year-olds must have been reading the Daily Telegraph, or watching GB News. People who go on and on about how bad Britain is, and who are not always wrong about that, react with fury when, in particular, the young agree with them, and do so not because of school, at least in the sense of what was formally taught, but because of life.
There are nine Labour MPs who were born after 1995, and while one of those is Nadia Whittome, are the others in the Reserves? Is the 26-year-old Liberal Democrat, whose party has only once its 37-year history seen a war that it did not like? Their contemporaries rightly do not fancy being sent to their deaths by people who would never go.
And if only 11 per cent of them would trust the Police if they were victims of crime, then they must have been listening to Nigel Farage, Richard Tice, Lee Anderson and Rupert Lowe, all of whom have denounced two-tier policing on the floor of the House of Commons, while their party's other MP appears to be mute in general, although his past life makes it fairly easy to guess his opinion on this issue.
Every nail hit on the head.
