Allow 16 and 17 year olds to legally vote.
16+ year olds can live on their own, buy lottery tickets, claim benefits but not vote. Why not? At 16, these young adults are mature and understand parliament and yet our country does not allow these young adults to vote for who they wish to be in parliament. It's ridiculous!
