They mean to inflict the idea on the young working class, in the hope of hanging onto the votes of a few old right-wingers who are defecting to Reform UK.
This is what it's all about. It's a tossed off idea that just appeals to Daily Mail and Express readers because they basically don't like young people with their Tik Toks and their gender neutral toilets. It's same attitude that leads them to conclude the reason young people can't afford houses is because they don't save money and spend it all on avocado toast and designer coffee. They think young people are spoilt and they want them to suffer a little because they think it will do them good.
Young people don't vote Conservative so they don't care about pitching policies that will be unpopular with young people. They're just trying to recover some of the votes they're losing to Reform.
