"You can marry your MP, you can have sex with your MP, you can pay tax with your MP, but you can't vote for your MP". It's about time this injustice was stopped, give 16 year olds the vote. They can die for this country but they can't vote for it, they can pay tax for this country, but they can't vote for it. At the age of 16, we can legally leave school, work full time and pay taxes, leave home, get married, join the armed forces, and choose where we want our lives to go. At 16, we take control of our futures, yet we are denied the right to do what every other adult in the country who does the same, but is over 18 can vote.
