No Way at 16. They know nothing yet. I think we give people the vote far too easily. it should be something studied for like the driving test and an exam should be taken to prove you have the necessary knowledge to make an informed decision as to how you wish to vote. Having the vote should become a badge of citizenship that has to be earned. You want a say in how things run? Then show an interest and acquire the knowledge.
The fact that some dumb, game playing, fashion obsessed, glotal stopped,Sun reading, alcoholic,Soap obsessed, teenager can cancel out my vote by just turning up at the booth makes me mad!
