we joined the EEC ... and voted to stay in that

I have complete contempt for those wanting to allow 16-17 years old the vote, and EU nationals. Only British Adults should be allowd to vote. Either wait to be an adult, or become a British Citizen.

We can veto it, But our MP's have been shown to lie about their position on the EU so i wouldn't be surprised if against the publics wishes the Government decided to give away our veto

And then voted in governments and a parliament which accepted the expansion of the EU @wacka

So yes. We voted.

then it became the EU... and EVENTUALLY we got a vote on it and chose to leave

Up the voting age to 21

We had elected members there at EVERY stage of the process @wacka

every campaigning PM back to tony blair promised a referendum on the EU

Actually, just allow people who pay income tax to vote, whatever age

we voted them in because they were going to give us a vote on the EU

only one actually delivered on that... and we voted leave

we dont even let 16yr olds watch game of thrones

It depends on the person

I'd let them

Some 16 years olds will know enough and be mature enough to vote

to quote sargon "depends on the child" 😛

Well in this case it does

.

Personally I'd only let people in employment and home owners vote

16 year olds can work

Be taxed

I say only landowners can vote

And many are just as informed or more than the 80 year olds

Yeah, if you work I'm inclined to say that you can vote

Bring it right back to the last civil war the UK had

Doubt that @PureEvilPie

HIGHLY.

I’m fairly certain 16 year old olds can join the reserves and army as well? Or is that the 17 year olds?

We should just keep the current system, Anyone 18 or above can vote

yeah

Nathan your average 16 year old will be much more connected to the world as a whole

16 with parental consent, but are limited in what they can do

And knowledgable of the world

Than your typical 80 year old

They're more connected to Snapchat.. Instagram..

the system isn't perfect but it's better than the alternatives

You’re sounding like a boomer Nathan
