TO ALLOW 16 TO 17 YEARS OLDS TO HAVE A VOTE
I WOULD LIKE THE GOVERMENT TO DEBATE AND PASSED A LAW THAT ALLOW YOUNG 16 TO 17 YEAR OLDS TO HAVE THE RIGHT TO VOTE, SCOTLAND HAS DEMONSTRATED THAT YOUNG PEOPLE ARE A IMPORTANT PART OF THE UK IN SCOTLAND AND THEY DID THIS BY VOTING IN THERE MANY HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS AND IF THERE WAS THE RIGHT TO VOTE IN ENGLAND FOR YOUNG PEOPLE THIS WOULD HAVE A POSITIVE EFFECT ON POLITICS IN ENGLAND AND ALSO GIVE YOUNG GENERATION MORE INTERESTED IN POLITICS AT A YOUNGER AGE AND MAKE THEM FEEL APART OF THE NEW GENERATION AT A EARLY AGE BEFORE THEY PASS THE POINT OF NO INTEREST AND BECOME DETATCHED WHICH SERVES NO ONE AS THEY ARE OUR FUTURE.
