Abstract

Students did not hold as much sway in the 2015 UK general election as was predicted, according to a new report from the Higher Education Policy Institute (HEPI) think tank. It argues that while the student vote was still important, it was swallowed up by wider national swings – towards the Conservatives and away from the Liberal Democrats.
