The was the event of the end of the cold War, interventions in the Balkans and Francis fukuyamas the end of History

Would have played a massive part in the forging of their point of views

The 1970s leader party did put forward a Scottish devolution referendum in 1979

It takes a long time the cycle through generations and their leadership such as the dying of the world War II political leaders in the 1950s and 60s

As well as the generation that fought through it and live through it particularly in the 1990s in regards the United Kingdom

John major highlighted that after 1992 with a lot of conservative MPs leaving the house of commons

New generations of coming in that didn't grow up and live through world War 2

A lot of policies now are made by the boomers being the largest generation which is very significant in democracies

As they retire and as they die mostly over the next two decades

It'll be generation X, millennial and zoomers coming to power

And with it there ways of seeing the world which would be different

For somebody born in the 1990s their political identity will be forged in the 2008 economic crisis, 2010s and the covid crisis and it's after math
