Make your mind up. One minute you’re saying there’s an ever increasing number of 'the old', next minute you’re saying the death of 'the old' will reduce the number of Tory and reform voters. Isn’t that fence getting up your arse a bit too far now?

Are you proposing euthanasia of the old?
It would reduce the number of Tory and Farage voters.

What you fail to grasp is that people tend to vote differently as they age.
