Everyone vote Johnson
Why the fuck would anyone wanna vote Johnson
You're 14 fuck off
Raise the voting age
25 minimum
18 year olds can barely talk let alone vote
Well, it's a start.
We can agree to that.
I think theres reasonable research that suggests maturity is reached at 25
Mental anyway
man it's shit living in a constituency that voted 65% to remain
it also sucks to be a university student in the year 2019
I really do think the tories have been more scummy than usual this election
It’s quite dumb to expect people to work full time, pay taxes, be in army but not vote?
whoever was in charge of that needs to be fired
total fuck up
If you’re worried about the knowledge make an educational requirement for voting 🙂
education in what PEP
specifically
Basic
GCSEs
Literally just a minimum is C grades at GCSEs
If you have less than that, the chances of you understanding the implications of your vote are very slim
As evidenced by the large amount of post referendum interviews of leave voters asking “what is the EU?”
and what of people born before gcses were introduced?
Then you set the equivalent
That’s what we do for international students
Not particularly hard
Ofc id let people re do their GCSEs for free :£
:)*
issue with schools is modern day O levels ( they fucked gcses) and the sheer indoctrination of students in some schools. i have seen it first hand at my college. theres people walking around with hammer and sickles on their clothing like its a good thing to be a commie
i'm not sold on the idea that passing your GCSEs makes you a wise voter
``An estimated 500 Chinese military scientists have spent time at British universities in the past decade. They include some who have worked on technologies linked to jet aircraft, supercomputers, missiles and even microscopically thin film that could be used to disguise tanks and ships.``
> “Hostile state actors are targeting UK universities to steal personal data, research data and intellectual property, and this could be used for their own military, commercial and authoritarian interests.
``The worries follow an explosion in the number of Chinese studying in Britain. At 106,000, the figure has doubled in a decade. Three institutions — Manchester, Liverpool and University College London — have Chinese cohorts of nearly 5,000 each. On some postgraduate courses, Chinese students outnumber those from Britain. At Liverpool, almost one in five of its 27,000 students is Chinese.``
``Critics say that professors reliant on foreign funding to prop up their departments and jobs have come under pressure from Chinese state officials to censor debate on subjects such as democracy in Hong Kong, the movement for independence in China’s far west province of Xinjiang — where China is believed to have detained 1m people from mostly Muslim ethnic minorities since 2017 — and the status of Tibet and Taiwan.``
