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

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
Historically speaking no they won't be
“These young kids these days, all they care about are their facebooks and their duck faces”
Basically.. Yeah.
Oof
You have levelled up to minor boomer
They don't understand what's happening in Syria for example, who the actors are, what each party policy on the matter is, the type of leaders each party has, the power of their vote, etc.
