Tories are now the working-class party: New analysis of election reveals Boris Johnson has MORE support among C2DEs than ABC1s - as even younger voters abandoned Jeremy Corbyn

Working class communities deserted Jeremy Corbyn and Labour in huge numbers after Boris Johnson's vow to get Brexit done, a damning new election analysis shows today.

The Tories won over the DE social class made up of the unemployed and unskilled workers by 13 points, an astonishing gulf for a Conservative leader.

The lead, 47 per cent to 34 per cent - swallowed up Jeremy Corbyn's three point advantage among the same group in the 2017 election.

And it also dwarfs the eight point lead that Ed Miliband enjoyed in 2015, which prompted his resignation as Labour leader.

In more bad news for Mr Corbyn, who announced plans to step down in the new year after hemorrhaging support last Thursday, his leadership failed to generate a hoped-for 'youthquake' at the election as younger voters flocked to the Tories at an ever younger age.

The average age of the Tory/Labour crossover, when more people vote for the Conservatives than the opposition, plummeted to 39 last week, down from 47 two years ago.

UKs version of Deplorables. I wonder what Labour figures like Kair Hardie, McDonald, and Attlee would think of what their party has become; a bunch of race agitators, and nomenklatura.

young folks want a future!
not dictatorship and slavery (and not IslamoNazi rule, either!)

But Labor promised everything would be FREE!!!

Us Yanks need a dictionary to explain Brit jargon. I have no idea what a C2DE, ABC1 or DE social class is. though I do have a vague idea of what Brits call a Tosser.

Question is will they continue voting conservative after Brexit?

And, a lot voted for Brexit pastry other than Conservative to withhold their vote from Labour over Brexit.

Lefties believed their own propaganda.

[Fido969]

C2DE is R2D2’s cousin, ABC1 is “Already been chewed once,” and DE is “Destroyer Escort.”

Get up to speed, boomer.

Just like America’s Democrats - Labour don’t represent working or middle-class people. They represent elites and their rigid statist, Neo-marxist ideology.

This is happening around the globe as leftism has increasingly become the religion of the urban elite and those that reside in ivory towers.
