And there's the issue with all you have written. You have no first hand knowledge of doing these things for yourself, recently. You have experience of advising, patronising and money lending. It's not remotely the same thing.

I cant disagree with you, but we dont actually live in a real country of Austerity like Greece, many public service budgets have increased. Though I agree, wage deflation has made it tougher for us Joe Bloggs who dont see much of the benefits of a growing economy

the logical conclusion would be to standardise on 18. we're not about to let 16yo drink and we already insist 16-17yo either work or stay in education. but we want to allow them to work and sexual consent isnt something we can sensibly increase. so maybe a half way house is not so stupid?

Anyone that demands a free shirt from their football club should definitely be banned. Bloody greedy Tories
With the labour Party getting the kids vote and clearly changing the political map.
Do you feel that at 18 years old have any experience in life to vote in politics?
A lot of these voters could just have been 11 years old when Labour were in power before, should they be allowed to vote
I was gullible at 18 years old if someone promises you the earth, you believe it, you don't understand how they get the earth to you and probably don't care.
This is not meant to be an attack at the youth but you guys have a long time on this planet and in life you will be learning a lot.
Sounds harsh..................but fair.

Until you have left school/University found a job you have no idea of the real world you are about to enter,suggest 21 is ideal,the rush of youngsters voting to receive free schooling made a mockery of the recent election watch Labours next move to buy votes,free video games and cinema tickets and perhaps cheap Premiership tickets,whatever next?

Those that whinge on endlessly about the jolly rotters that might or might not have taken a birthday card at a football ground or people that claim familly camping 100 miles away or so might by some miracle sequence of events just might have been caught up in the shoreham air crash and have the urge to publicly share such bizarre thoughts on line....
Not sure where this inspiration has come from but if there were such people then they most definitely have no idea of the real world. They should also be banned from voting.
The list grows.
