'Votes for 16 year olds!' squawk the madcaps in the Lib Dems and it is a view echoed throughout the Labour party.They are desperate to get their hands on 'new voters' before their political faculties have developed - shame on these people.
BUT watch for the hypocrisy! - These youngsters are alleged to have sufficient nous to select a government - but the smoking age is [admittedly, rightly] raised to 18. It is largely the same people who have wanted this.
Consistency?
