Since when did the middle classes vote Labour
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Since populist propaganda needed to make them the enemy of the working class.

My intuition says it be will far higher because a lot of youngsters at Uni who can vote, will make sure they will do so this time.

The grumpy salty, burden on the country over 55 will be on the opposing corners trying to back the tories.

Hoping it will be a bitterly cold day whole day

Students will be students on any given day and as likely to be lying in bed after a night out before breaking up for Christmas.

Meanwhile everyone who feel they’ve been betrayed by a dead parliament will go out of their way to ensure they get their votes in again.

A more likely scenario don’t you agree?

With IDS trying to raise the retirement age to 75, I should imagine a lot of 55 year olds won't want the Tories back in.

I support it.

A lot of older voters vote Tory and therefore it'll be their vote that is impacted as they won't want to trek out in the cold and dark.

A win/win for everyone I would suggest.

And students for Labour aren’t home yet
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Students can register at both addresses.

Electoral fraud

Our son is about to register and he’s been told it’s at home or at university.

Yes but not both. That's the issue we had at the last GE if I'm not mistaken.

Ah. Got you. He’s doing his at home and his mum will act as proxy for him.
