They actually had it easy - free education, plenty of well paid jobs, no shortage of housing to rent or buy. Those with homes saw the value rise while they sat on their fat arses on the Costa-del-Sol. Those under 30 have had the ladder pulled up by these greedy bastards so that they're worse off.
May's Dementia Tax was right ... Corbyn will get them though ... :-)

Of course it could be the radio programs way of attracting listeners.....

It remains to be seen if the closing gap will re-invigorate Tory voters, or whether it will give others hope that May can in fact be beaten and swing behind Corbyn. A lot can change in seven days.

But, it does look like May's big promise of "strong and stable" isn't going to pay off and the lack of an expected landslide could well be her downfall, sooner or later, and therefore the rest of ours. Either way she's shown herself to be lacklustre in the extreme for leading any kind of negotiations regarding Brexit.
I second Fretwired's opinion that in only a year she has managed to replace Cameron as the worst PM in living memory.

Labour’s election campaign is being boosted by fake social media accounts that pump out positive messages about Jeremy Corbyn thousands of times per day, The Daily Telegraph can reveal.
One in eight messages about British politics posted on Twitter are generated by automated accounts known as web robots or “bots”.
Individual accounts each post up to 1,000 messages per day attacking Theresa May or promoting Labour. They are set up to look like personal user accounts to trick other users into thinking real people are backing Labour. Automated accounts also back other parties, but to a far smaller degree.
They were described last night by Oxford University researchers as “worrying” because of the power of automated accounts to “distort” and influence views. Twitter is predominantly used by young people, who are also more likely to be Labour supporters.

An ex-member from here wrote that he didn't care if there were lies so long as the Tories lost and he was happy to spread fake news.

is it fake news? How can I tell?
If either of us need care, we will be happy to fund it out of the sale of the house after death as will, I expect, the vast majority of reasonable minded people. Although, I suspect, most of will want to see it used properly rather than just pissed up the wall which is what all governments do.
Please don't tar all of us oldies with the same brush.
In any case, whoever gets into power won't have enough cash available *or* enough political capital to properly address the NHS' issues, and there's a good chance it'll collapse under its own weight one way or another.
On the other hand, you can read the actual study which came out two days ago and look at the facts of the study. Pause to laugh at the Telegraph's big "reveal" of something two days old first.

"Automation
As the Sun reports, "Automated accounts also back other parties, but to a much smaller degree."
So all parties have these automated backers but two Conservative newspapers choose to focus on Labour. Apparently 21,661 pro-Labour tweets is deemed worthy of a scare story but 13,409 pro-Conservative tweets gets no mention at all. The study doesn't indicate whether accounts are run for or against particular candidates or parties.
Telegraph: free media manipulation and bias is terrible!
Andy: but what about paid media manipulation and bias?
Telegraph: .....
