So should we raise the voting age to 25 then? The last thing I want is self obsessed twitface junkies effecting who's in the government.

//Well some could argue it's the fault of the elders for not bringing us up properly//
That does go some way to explaining your posts Spathi.Obviously you are speaking from experience.:-)

So what went wrong Spathi?

The same could be asked of T³ who seems to have first hand experience of young people in his own family who could be described in his flowery words.

I think you're all being a bit harsh on spathi, he's only balancing the other side and hasn't said anything worse than anyone else. People are individuals at any age- there's no point trying to pigeon-hole everybody.

OK Pixie: sorry Spathi :-)

//No, i think you should be able to vote as soon as you are able to work. If you pay tax, you should be able to vote.//

Spathy....I think its taking things too far to expect us to believe that Trump is running anything, let alone a country !

[ummmm]

Webbo....were you paying tax at 10?

Spathi, I left school at 14 and went straight into a job (Taxed pay) but had no interest in politics and so would not have any idea who to vote for.Is tis the type of person you are advocating should be able to vote?
