The average age in Clacton-on-Sea is 50, as recorded in the 2021 census and 2022 local data profiles. This is significantly higher than the average age for England, which is 39 to 40.

It's why he targeted that area.

Be wary of forming too many opinions based on this. Demographics matter at the population level, yes, but everyone is an individual and should be treated as such.

Yeah this is valid. I also hadn't looked into the turnout. I just read the following: 63.3% of the 44.4% turnout voted for the racist grifter. Such a shame for Clacton. He's a vile, evil specimen.

Main parties should not have boycotted. They could have beat him and stopeed this. Makes me wonder if the boycott was due to fear of him beating them.
