Every single statistic shows that the higher your education is, the more likely you are to vote.

So.... It's the smart, educated and successful people doing the voting.

In the UK, especially among the younger sections of the population, they're more likely to be apathetic. It's the suburban conservative middle class who can be relied on to vote, hence New Labour's periodic reactionary policies directed at their approval. They favour more CCTV, more police, more cars, strict enforcement of current cultural norms even as they privately ingest assorted substances, etc. They may be educated, they may have some liberal views, but they're not likely to be liberal across the board. Tory probably best describes them, albeit solidly Thatcherite economically.
