| Annotation | The evidence of research conducted by the Older People and Politics Project (OPPOL) at the University of Exeter suggests that older people do not appear to feature highly on the political agenda and are not seen as influential players. This article outlines OPPOL's research, in which three main questions are considered. First, how effective are pressure groups and lobbyists for older people? Second, how is the power and influence of older people perceived by older people themselves? Third, how are politicians responding to older people and their needs? (RH). |
