UK Youth: Frustrated, Unemployed, and Voting for Change

Update: 2025-12-06

Description

Young people in the UK face a demographic time bomb as they struggle with affording homes, managing debt, and finding jobs, leading to a rise in NEETs (not in education, employment, or training). This discontent is causing them to reject mainstream politics, with the Green Party and Reform UK gaining traction. The government acknowledges the problem, but experts warn that these young voters may not return to traditional parties. The situation is complex, with factors like rising education costs, a stagnant economy, and mental health issues contributing to the issue.
