We examined who feels economically insecure in Britain – and why – to directly explore the relationship between economic insecurity, security and vote choice. This is useful because using income or social class to analyse people’s economic circumstances misses a picture of economic insecurity and security over the age distribution.

We will discuss the distinction between younger (under 40-50s) voters as ‘will haves’ (younger graduates) and ‘won’t haves’ (younger non-graduates). Older generations are less likely to feel economically insecure, and this is true for both older graduates and non-graduates.

Understanding these differences provides a fresh perspective on the economic and political transformations sweeping the country.
