I moved some bitcoin yesterday and it hasn't been confirmed. It seems to have been broadcast as I can see that it was sent on the receiving account, but it still has no confirmations.

Is it because I used a slightly older Electum wallet (2.5.4)? Will it confirm eventually or is it not going to happen?
Any tip in Electum (now 2.7.12) for how I can push/re-broadcast the transaction? Or even cancel it.

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

You're tx seems to have gone trough fine because I'm able to find it on blockchain.info, however your fee is only +-45 satoshis/byte which is lower than the current recommended amount of +-80 sats/byte http://bitcoinfees.21.co, especially during highly congested times like these with 26k unconfirmed txs.
