With those aged 25 and under making up 390,000 of the 930,000 people who have registered to vote since Theresa May called the snap election, there’s hope that young people are engaged in party policies and will exercise their right to influence the next five years of government. However, many feel that the current state of politics doesn’t reflect their needs, or even speak to them at all. As Jones highlights, the lives of young people have changed drastically over the past few decades, yet politics hasn’t caught up: "Things have evolved and yet politics hasn't. That leaves young people out of the loop. It's not that they don't care, it's just no one is talking them through what it's all about and why they should be engaged."
