You can work at 16, so it’s child labour?

Dont lower the age to vote, add a maximum age to vote. The elderly shouldn’t vote for a future they won’t be a part of.

i think we need to decide what is an adult and what isn't an adult. - you can join the military at 16 - but you can't get married - but you can have a baby - but you can't drink/smoke/gamble - but you can move out of your parent/guardian's home they are either a kid or they aren't and the law should reflect this

He’s correct. It’s completely absurd to lower the voting age.

Children can drive, be parents, join the army, work, pay taxes but voting is too far

he's 100% right. labour only wants this to pass to boost their votes. those votes will probably go green and backfire however

Billy butcher :
I believe everyone with a job that pays tax should vote. age shouldn't matter. if you don't work you shouldn't have the right to vote.

The government shouldnt be taxing them then. Stealing money from children is so dishonest.

if they give kids votes, they will all vote green cos kids are easily manipulated it would seem

voting should be for tax payers only, it's our taxes that the government spend so we should decide who spends it

If you’re going to be an adult for half of the next government you should have a say in who runs it

so why can they pay tax? if they pay tax they should have a say who is going to spend that tax.
