I have an idea. I didn't get to vote in the 1974 Referendum on the EEC because I was too young. Ok ... Can we rerun that as I have to live with the outcome? No, you can't rerun it now but you could have protested at the time? That's basically what people are saying about BREXIT: "16-17 year olds couldn't vote, not fair, we should have a #PeoplesVote" |

It's very different between something likely to affect them for only 4 years or for their lifetimes? The problem for you is that the opportunity you missed has long since gone, it hasn't for this current mess as it's still way from being decided / concluded. Cheers, T i m |
