This doesn't automatically have to happen though. Generally these people acquire property, mortgages and start to earn more and in turn they vote Tory. But home ownership continues to decline amongst the young and generally wages are stagnating.
The big reason for Labour improving is the 25 to 39 groups had a strong turnout and were more Labour than usual.
Age is still the deciding factor but it's getting older and older.
