Lower The National UK voting age from 18 to 16 and give Young people a say in the way politics is run in the UK
At the age of 16 you can:
-get married (with parental consent)
-work and earn a minimum wage
-join the Army
-Pay TAX
but you can't vote
And this needs to be changed as the next step for these young adults will be going to universities and with the government rising fees and them having no say this is making it hard for them to afford and many dreams are vanishing.
