You're ignoring the fact, that turnout is a flawed argument. If people, care they should vote. I have no idea what decade you guys grew up in, but I guess I'm the only one here young enough to be considered a millennial. I did give fuck about my future when I was 16 years old. You do realise your beloved European Union's franchise begins at eighteen also? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Austria, Malta, Germany varies by region, Estonia, Greece (17), Spain (16 for referendums), Scotland. Some countries even make it compulsory to vote (not that I support that).

I just hope you feel as passionate about the EU lowering their franchise to sixteen, as you do about the UK. In the spirit of fairness?

You'd have to get them away from the porn and cider for long enough to get them to the polling booth in the first place anyway. Unless they make it so you can tweet your vote.

DieselDaisy Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 (edited) We had the Khaki Elections of 1900 and 1918. We had the Flapper Election of 1929.

DieselDaisy Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Corbyn's hobbies, Quote Running, cycling, cricket, jam-making with fruit grown on his allotment and Arsenal football club. His most unusual hobby is an interest in the history and design of manhole covers. He is also a fluent Spanish speaker, who enjoys Latin American literature http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/election-2017-39807055 Well, we all have our quirks I suppose?

AtariLegend Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 So you're focusing on Corbyn and tabloid stories as opposed to policies and the fact that the person he's running against is as much a vicars daughter as Pazzu.

At least the Tories claim beforehand that they're going to bugger you up the arse. Honesty is always the best policy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Len Cnut Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Plus he's an Arsenal supporter, plus he says (famous last fuckin' words ) that he's gonna scrap Uni fees and seeing as how i got a fuckin' student loan out right now and plan to be goin' for an Masters in a years time It'd come in handy.
