Voting requires life experience
I agree with Peter Hitchens on not reducing the voting age to 16. Looking back, my interest in voting was only awakened after I started work, married and had a family in my early 20s. I could then appreciate how election manifestos would affect my family and our futures.
As for allowing foreign residents to vote, it’s a definite no unless they have applied for and been granted UK citizenship.
