I went to a comprehensive in the north of England, and there was a lot of it. I think they mostly died of heroin overdoses, so no way of finding out if they changed their minds 50 years later. The '70s and '80s we're pretty grim up there.

I don't think we need to speculate, because this wasn't a step change, it's been a gradual process going on for decades - the % of gen X affected < % of millennials < % of gen Z, of course, but there are certainly people who've been in this situation for 30 years or more already.

They're usually run by local branches, but probably the budget approval process will tighten up - there may be some marginal ones, but there are a lot in total around the country.

The Tory vote increased by only 0.8 percentage points (36.1 to 36.9) - not exactly a resounding endorsement by the electorate. They won lots of seats because the Lib Dem vote collapsed
