Liberal Democrat Party

Very strongly agree

Yes

The Liberal Democrats have consistently supported lowering the voting age to 16. In their 2019 General Election manifesto, they pledged to 'Give 16- and 17-year-olds the right to vote in elections and referendums.' They believe that young people should have a say in decisions that affect their future, and they have been campaigning for this change for many years.

Agree

Yes, any citizen that pays taxes should be allowed to vote

While the Liberal Democrats have not explicitly linked voting rights to tax-paying citizens, they do support lowering the voting age to 16, which would include many young people who work and pay taxes. Their primary focus is on giving young people a voice in the political process, so they might agree with this statement to some extent, but it is not their main argument for lowering the voting age.

Very strongly disagree

No

The Liberal Democrats strongly disagree with maintaining the current voting age of 18. As mentioned earlier, they have been campaigning for lowering the voting age to 16 and have included this policy in their election manifestos. They believe that young people should have a say in decisions that affect their future.

Very strongly disagree

No, it should be raised

The Liberal Democrats would strongly disagree with raising the minimum voting age. They have been advocating for lowering the voting age to 16, so raising the age would go against their policy and beliefs. They believe in giving young people a voice in the political process and decisions that affect their future.

Very strongly disagree

No, and voters should be required to pass a basic test demonstrating their understanding of politics in order to vote

The Liberal Democrats would strongly disagree with requiring voters to pass a basic test demonstrating their understanding of politics in order to vote. They believe in an inclusive democracy and equal voting rights for all citizens. Introducing a test would create barriers to voting and potentially disenfranchise many eligible voters, which goes against their core values of promoting democracy and equal representation.
