Votes At 16?

Michael Dugher, Labour MP for Barnsley has recently published a piece demanding votes for 16 year olds.

What utter piffle. That children, the vast majority of whom have had little life experience and who will not have yet shed the feeble leftist ideas which have been fed into them through their education should have the vote is an absurdity. Mr Dugher clearly wants a goodly number of extra Labour votes as he knows that the majority of their votes already do not tend to come from people with any degree of political maturity.
