Labour literally just got a twenty-five year old MP elected. Even our Prime Minister is only 43 at the moment.

Yeah our problem is that our voter turnout is too geriatric, not our politicians. More young people need to vote.

He's fucking useless but he's 43. Liz Truss is 48 and she still managed to tank an economy. Yes McConnel probably should retire but he's a cunt and been fucking things up since he was a mere stripling elected to the Senate.

The problem is that wealth accrues to individuals over time and money buys politicians.
