I certainly do not agree that over 70s should not be able to vote. If anything, I think it should maybe sometimes be the other way around. I know of many young people who just aren't interested in politics and do not bother to inform themselves properly of all the facts, yet they are allowed to vote. Also I find that they are often ignorant of history and the way the world has developed,for example the history behind why we have so many immigrants in the UK etc. Yes, I may have less time to be influenced by the outcomes of any votes, but my children and grandchildren will still be here. I will be voting with that in mind.
My thoughts entirely. My AC are all busy people, children, careers, etc the usual. Any political or current news conversation is quickly put down with 'you watch too much news' or 'I can't be bothered with that' yet they will live by social media chat; I do not feel they have a good grip of current life events.
