What Gen Z needs most is economic growth
Young Britons are not opposed to economic growth; they simply have not experienced it. A recent report indicates that younger voters are eager for growth but feel disconnected from its benefits. Their skepticism stems from a lack of trust in the system, as they perceive growth as primarily benefiting others rather than themselves.
- ▪Younger Britons have lived under an economy that has not grown since 2008.
- ▪Many young people believe that growth mainly benefits the government and corporations, not themselves.
- ▪A significant majority of younger voters support cutting taxes and reducing regulation to stimulate economic growth.
