Rejected petition Politicians that are 13+ years of age

More details

It is ageist that Parliament think that they can take away rites of young people under the age of 18.

How come under 18's can't vote for rules that one has to obey, especially when some under 18's work and pay taxes too.

I am offended that someone that lives in and was born in Britain cannot vote and and frankly, I'm digusted
