Petition Raise the voting age to 21

More details

Lowering the voting age is widely accepted to be a bad idea as young people are naturally immature. However, a significant proportion of present voters are equally unfit to vote. To help counter this, please support this petition to raise the voting age to 21

PS There is a lot of support from under-21s for this, including me.
