Re: votes for those of 16 years
My personal opinion for what it's worth is the whole of UK should be as it was 18 to vote. Cameron Caved into the Scots from memory when they wanted 16 year olds to vote in the hope it would be them that voted to leave the UK. However although my view is 18 I also don't believe different parts of UK should have differing voting ages, it should be same for all. Mind same should apply to free prescriptions bus passes etc but it doesn't, so are we actually one nation?
