Probably not in the UK, as the house-owning population are much older and tend to vote Conservative (the current governing party).

Young people are already screwed, and unless they all show up to vote in marginal constituences (unlikely) then they'll continue to get screwed, unfortunately.

Right, but the age cohorts that are screwed are only going to get older over time (unless policy changes).
That time is well beyond the average politicians event horizon, I suspect.
