To lower the national minimum voting age is absurd. Why on earth is it beneficial to anyone in our country? If this was allowed to happen you would have 15,16 and 17 year old kids rocking up to the polling station thinking it's cool that they are about to vote when in actual fact it is a very serious event that everyone should take seriously. This could be the vote that elects the new prime minister and the government. In our days, we have children who haven't got the 'foggiest' about political activity and will choose a party through pure choice and will have no idea what the party they are selecting stands for. For example, a 16 year old kid ticks the Liberal democrat party box and leaves having no clue about what that even means. I have met kids in education who don't even know who the Labour party is. To me, anyone who wishes to lower the voting age is naïve and does not look at the bigger picture.
