I don't think they don't care more that the "establishment" do not know how to engage with youngsters - the socialist lad Corbin was very good at it, he has that "revolutionary" feistiness about him and he did engage with a lot of young voters and well done to him. If as a result of his style of rhetoric more youngsters get involved in politics then I think thats brilliant. Irrespective of their stripes the more the better.

The problem here is that the Conservative party is veiwed as "out of touch" which is probably right. If the likes of Corbin can shake them up and drag them out of their little Westminster bubble then he has done his job. I wouldn't vote for him but at least he brings an argument to the table. The current Conservative lot didn't know how to respond and got totally trollied by him - bit like a boxer having been served the ultimate haymaker they just stood wide eyed and then collapsed not knowing what hit them.
