The matter of Britain’s franchise
Labour starts delivering on an important manifesto pledge
I have to confess about a dozen years ago I was not supportive of 16 and 17 year olds having the vote but then I saw the positive impact they had in the Indyref of 2014 on both sides and I changed my mind.
I suspect turnout amongst this age group will be rather lower than all other age groups so won’t have the ramifications people on the left hope for and voters on the right fear.
