Giving kids a vote opens a can of worms

Starmer so desperate for votes is going to try to give the vote to 16/17 year old children. Most of them are not mature enough to make this kind of decision. If this happens then any serious crimes committed by under 18's should also have the anonymity ban lifted. You could also end up being called up to fight for your country. Be careful what you wish for. Betty Boo

OMG 16/17year olds are going to be able to vote! Most don’t know their ar* from their elbow and how many would bother? Daft decision. AC&EC

The Muppets who run out country are going to allow school kids of 16 to vote! What nonsense is that?

They're not deemed responsible enough to buy alcohol, tobacco, lottery tickets, or stand for public office etc, but the huge responsibility of voting is deemed suitable. There shouldn't be anyone voting who's never paid income tax. Simple. Bedford Boy

So called labour have made plenty of bad decisions but the latest one giving sixteen olds the right to vote takes the cake hands down. What does a sixteen year old no about life absolutely nothing there still children at heart. Don’t take away their childhood by putting pressure on them at a tender age. Mad scaff
