- How to re-engage young people with electoral politics
says much that we already know. Sadly the crucial contact issue is the hardest one; people spend a lot more time with their (disillusioned, disinterested) friends and in front of the cynicism of the media than any politician can usefully counteract with a bit of door knocking...
