Older voters are gaining power in various Western democracies like the U.S., U.K., and France, leading political parties to focus on protecting retirees' income and healthcare as they form a significant portion of the electorate. In the UK, ahead of the election, parties are backing measures like the 'triple lock' guarantee for retirees to outpace inflation. Meanwhile, immigrant voters in the UK, including those from Commonwealth countries, are eager to participate in elections, with a focus on parties receptive to immigrants. Additionally, as the election nears, older voters, particularly baby boomers, are vocal about their needs, with parties like the Conservatives and Labour competing for their trust on issues like financial security and healthcare.
