  1. the 2015 general election.
  2. So the first category I research was voting, influenced by
  3. class, gender, age, ethnicity and region.
  4. Labor only had a clear lead over the Conservatives among
  5. 18 to 34 year olds, voters and social class D
  6. E on private and social renters and also be Emmy
  7. voters. Even worse, believe that their vote shares fell among
  8. those aged 65 plus, which is the highest turnout group,
  9. to just one in four.
  10. This group is where the Conservatives were the most successful,
  11. gaining gaining of 5.5 swing U M from labor since
  12. 2010. The Conservatives also achieved a three point swing from
  13. Labor among a bee's another high turnout group.
  14. While the vote share of the two main parties is
  15. broadly stable, the pattern of voting for other parties has
  16. completely changed.
  17. Liberal Democrats share vote share collapse across the board, only
  18. getting 10% among a BBS, which is their smallest fall
  19. among those aged 65 plus, where they had a lower
  20. share in 2010.
  21. Thin To begin with, they have fallen sharpest among the
  22. 34 year old, and this is perhaps because off tuition
  23. fees, um on private renters, her most likely to vote
  24. for the Green Party.
  25. Meanwhile, UKIP took third place among nearly every group exceptions.
  26. Again, social classes a be on being the voters on
  27. D do best among older, white, working class voters I've
  28. seen in recent elections.
  29. Conservative labor swing among men and women, though, was overall
  30. very similar but vote conservative and relatively equal proportions where
  31. women are more likely to vote for labor and less
  32. likely to vote for UKIP.
  33. There are more differences, though, if we don't treat men
  34. and women as a homogenous group.
  35. So most notably, Young Woman had the biggest swing to
  36. labor of any group, while older men had the small
  37. swing factor conservatives, two groups most almost exact opposites of
  38. each other.
  39. Labor had a 20 point lead among um, women aged
  40. 18 to 24 while the Conservatives had an 18 point
  41. lead among women over I'm 55 Sorry, both conservatives, and
  42. they've increased their vote share among the Emmy voters but
  43. remained unchanged among white voters.
  44. Um, this could be related to the rise of UKIP
  45. among white voters, Thio 14% vote, which may have counseled
  46. out some of the liberal Democrats for while among be
  47. Emmy voters only 2% so that they would vote for
  48. UKIP. Patterns of turnout remain relatively unchanged, with concerning implications
  49. for the future of Democratic engagement.
  50. There appears to be no sight of increase in Tanna
  51. among younger people, which is tthe e 18 to 24
  52. age bracket and almost half a ZX likely because those
  53. age 65 class okay, um, and and then similarly, turnout
  54. remains lower among working classes.
  55. Renters on BB communities.
  56. So in terms of violence.
  57. Violence, first of all, is when people decide how to
  58. vote based on policies, um, which align with their values
  59. the most, rather than just voting for a political party
  60. or political leader, um, on dhe, I've discovered that the
  61. conservative victory was a vindication of violence voting while the
  62. veins voting approach that has been emphasized by academic electoral
  63. analysts in the recent years suggesting that the electors air
  64. concerned Maura about violence issues nowadays, Um ah nde less
  65. about like ideology or positions that parties take on divisive
  66. issues. Eso violence.
  67. Voting has increased in recent years.
  68. The party leaders for the 2015 general election was David
  69. Cameron for the Conservatives Ed Miliband, the Liberal Democrats I'm
  70. sorry, Ed Miliband for Labor.
  71. Nick Clegg for the Liberal Democrats Nigel Farage, the UKIP
  72. Nazi. But for the Green Party, Nicholas, urgent the S
  73. and P on LeAnn word for played summary, which is
  74. the Welsh party.
  75. Um, the turnout for this general election was 66.1% which
  76. compared to the 65.1% in 2010.
  77. So only a slight increase in tunnel.
  78. Um but it was particularly high in Scotland at 71.1%.
  79. Um, I'm gonna show mop of Scotland's tell him, um
  80. so Scotland made historic gains and took all but three
  81. seats. Two seats have seen a turnout rise above 80%.
  82. This was in Dunbarton shirt east on Renfrew share east.
  83. Both seats were gained with jumping, um, events.
  84. On the day I found this newspaper clipping, um from
  85. the Guardian, which lists some of the major events that
  86. happened. Um, polling was on 7th May 2015, which was
  87. Thursday on dhe.
  88. It was from 7 a.m. To 10 p.m. I thought
  89. was quite particularly interesting about Ed Miliband.
  90. How he decided Thio um, go door to door on
  91. dhe. Talk to the electoral about voting issues such as
  92. like living standards on the future of the N.
  93. H s Onda new economy of working people, which, especially
  94. for younger voters, would be quite pertinent in helping them
  95. decide which party to vote for.
  96. Especially seeing as there's a lot more violence.
  97. He very doing on stuff like jobs, especially the N
  98. H s, is well, as I'll talk about later, one
  99. of the biggest issues that people wanted politicians toe talk
  100. about unlike including their manifestos.
  101. For the 25th the elections, say the outcome.
  102. Conservatives won 331 of the seats, securing a parliamentary majority
  103. of 12.
  104. After all, 650 constituencies were declared, they made a net
  105. gain of 24 seats on their share of the vote,
  106. increased by 0.8%.
  107. Labor saw a share of the vote increased more than
  108. the Conservatives, up to 1.5% but they made a net
  109. loss of seats off 26 Matt net loss of 26
  110. seats, or many during to the advances made by the
  111. S and P ah total of 50 of Scotland's 59
  112. seats changed hands in an unprecedented shift to the S
  113. and P at the polls.
  114. Nicolas Sturgeon's party now have 56 MPs, while Labor and
  115. Liberal Democrats saw their standing slash toe once in each,
  116. the service says were retained.
  117. Single seat Um In Scotland, the Conservatives swept to victory
  118. across the Southwest, wiping out liberal Democratic representation in the
  119. region completely.
  120. The Lib Dems Law School 15 of their seats, including
  121. North Devon, which for the past 23 years has been
  122. considered a safety by the Liberal Democrats.
  123. Cornel six constituencies or returned conservative MPs.
  124. 10 years ago, they would have algo onto the liberal
  125. Democrats on Dhe then other factors like to do with
  126. the outcome of the vote.
  127. This'd is the graph on dhe.
  128. These were the issues that people felt with the most
  129. important for politicians to Scott in the general election.
  130. On then, it shows that the share of the respondents
  131. to the survey on then the issues or listed out
  132. on the most important for most people was immigration followed
  133. closely by any chess which would have helped a labor,
  134. of course, um as the Guardian article stated.
  135. Ed Miliband thought was important to go door to door
  136. and talk Thio part about this UKIP would have benefited
  137. from the importance that the electric put on immigration.
  138. Um, labor also put a lot off importance on living
  139. standards and welfare benefits.
  140. Um, and then tax, interestingly, was a small issue.
  141. So it didn't really affect people's opinions that march.
  142. European Union on Immigration could be grouped together a za
  143. pertinent issue for a lot of people.
  144. Um, that was a lot off the white working class
