16 and 17-year-olds are going to be allowed to vote in the next election. Congratulations to whichever prick off tik-tok they make PM. I'm not specifically opposed to this move, but I think we need an adult age. The current mish-mash is just odd and makes no sense. You can join the army and have sex (presumably not at the same time) at 16. You can't take a picture of yourself nude and send it to someone else or buy a pint, though.
Ed Davey needs to seriously up his Doris wannabee game. "I'm not specifically opposed to this move, but I think we need an adult age. The current mish-mash is just odd and makes no sense.

I have always said the 'age of ascent' in the UK should be 17. On voting, the EARLIEST you can vote should be 17 (16 yrs old + either one year of military service / paying worker taxes) .
Considering how a sizeable chunk of the electorate were apparently born yesterday, I can't see where the issue is
Trump suing WSJ and Murdoch over 'bawdy birthday card', claiming he's 'never wrote a picture'. Which has come as a surprise to the charity fundraiser who sold two signed pictures in 2004 and a number of purchasers who have spent many thousands on his pictures over the years.... Can't imagine Rupert is too worried, although you can still seeing the Media company making a significant if nominal out of court settlement to keep off The Orange ****s radar for a bit. CBS have just dropped The Late Show for the same reason... https://news.sky.com/story/donald-t...-jeffrey-epstein-birthday-card-claim-13398643
I hope Murdoch keeps his nerve as the chance to interrogate Trump would be game changing. Who knew the Aussie could be a hero.
