Bill Shorten Calls For Voting Age To Be Lowered

[icyfroth]

The nation's voting age should be lowered to 16 because young Australians do not see their views reflected in Parliament, according to Federal Opposition Leader Bill Shorten.

In a speech to the New South Wales Young Labor conference in Sydney today, Mr Shorten said if people aged 16 and 17 can drive, work, pay taxes, join the military and make their own choices about medical treatment, they should also be allowed to vote.

They are so desperate they want children to vote them in. It will pobably get them some votes seeing as how the far left wing teachers union distorts young minds at school.

It goes back even further.Parents instill in their childrens' minds to care and share at an early age.Shame on them.

I'm still wondering where or what Albo and Plib are doing, they must be desperate.

Plibberseck will probably come back from Kiribati and try to scare pensioners all over again about the rising seas.
