I hate this idiotic boomer generalisation. It has no foundation in anyway shape or form. It is just culture wars that people buy into. Yes older people vote more, but they have the same statistics when they were young as the young do now. They haven’t spent their whole lives voting selfishly. In the UK the only reason you have more boomers in the group is because the group is based on 18 years and not 15 like the other groups. When you average out how many are in each group by year they come in 3rd lowest. The highest is the gen X. By the time these people were 18 they were not even the largest group then. People die leave the country and other emigrate in. It is just a stupid fallacy people have latched onto.
