It is a well known fact that the young person's vote has been on the decline for quite some time, so what efforts have we seen from politicians to try and engage with young people?
I can't very well say that there has been no efforts whatsoever. I'm sure there has been the odd occasion in which MPs have visited schools or universities, or answered questions from young people from time to time. Assuming that this is the case, is it enough? The fact is that I can't think of a single effort by any MP which has been directed specifically at young people. Can you?
Could it be that politicians don't actually want to change to target young people because they are afraid of losing their more mature followings? Or is it that they don't actually care that young people don't vote?

I don't think its a case that politicians only want the older voter. The problem is not many young people vote, so why should politicians aim policies at those who are not going to vote?
