It follows...

"Behind the scenes, the Conservatives admit that they have a challenge when it comes to attracting new supporters – particularly younger age groups. In the snap election, Labour were ahead in every voting-age category from 40-year-olds down. It follows that getting these groups to not only vote blue but pay money for the pleasure is no small feat."

(The Guardian.)

Is "It" a dummy one in the sentence It follows that getting these groups to not only vote blue but pay money for the pleasure is no small feat?

What is the implied complement of the noun phrase the pleasure in that sentence? Is it the pleasure [of voting blue]?
