Recently the media have talked about the effects of this government’s policies in relation to old people, but what about us young people?
We have never had so much material wise, although in terms of what is meaningful, never had so little.
If you want to be able to have a home and or have a family, unless you’ve had the financial backing, you’re gonna find it extremely difficult in today’s economic, political and social climate. Arguably, the most difficult it’s ever been since the Victorian period based on the metrics – the price to earnings ratios.
Let’s look at what can be done by us young people…
Some of you may have started university. I remember what that was like seven years ago now; it can be quite intimidating, but embrace the chaos.
For all of us there is an opportunity going into this winter: use it as a chance to rebuild. In this rebuild start getting into good habits, and do it with other people so you can hold each other to account and also so you’re part of a team – you can encourage each other.
Even consider buying a house with several friends. More guarantors. More deposit money.
The young people in Reform UK know this: we raise each other up, not drag each other down like careerist do in the other parties. We are a party of ambition, strength, integrity and meritocracy.
However, the way we thrive… is together – not divided. “If you reform yourself, then you reform a nation.”
