Its My belief that Scottish 16&17 year olds should be allowed a vote in the referendum on such an important issue as the breaking up of the union.

We have all the obvious reasons why they should, pay tax, have kids, join the army, get married etc.

We also have the fact that some 14&15 year olds are more politicaly aware than some elder voters especially the kids in private education.

Who are we to deny OUR future the right to vote on that future.

If you agree please join the campaign and sign the epetition, this epetition may help in allowing 16&17 year olds the right to vote on all political issue including a general election.

Once again shows how daft you Nasties are. Or is it deperate?

I can just see at the poll, the Obi Wan Dougies will be wandering among the voters desperately trying to use the force to bend the will of the bewildered to the nationalist faux-independence cause



What a pantomime!

The nats are in for a shock with this,just ask the 5th and 6th years of broughton high school.

The outcome of their poll was very good reading as the nats were even behind the lib-dems

Reasons being Sturgeon and her likes making it more difficult for them to go out to pubs and clubs to enjoy themselves at a legal age by forcing ID checks on them and wanting pubs and clubs to enforce an over 23 rule.

Yes your right reggie they are more aware nowadays

NO...Their romantic dreams Dictates their opinions at that age and not their Brains....Exactly what Greasy sleeky Slippery Eck wants..that mans a menace.

Hate to say it mate, but folks are gonna think you're me in disguise.

I hated the nanny state too when I was their age.

Reg,

Salmond wants a Legacy that and only THAT, he does not care a toss about Scotland just 'I was the man that was responsible for Independence' i will go down in the history books for this one.

As for enticing 16 and 17 year olds to vote is total Madness what he will do to obtain votes and Reg BTW you are brainwashed by an Individual who has a bigger Ego than Fred and Murdoch put together.

Cameron will target the Benefit Brigade who dont give a toss who is in power as long as they get their Coin but once they find out that their Shekels will be be down 50 or 60 a week under King Salmond they will be queing overnight at the polls to rectify that position, hence the need to get the 16 and 17 year olds votes, yes he is a smart cookie King salmond also his cohort Prince John.

Wake up Reg and smell the coffee you have been listening to Alex for too long it Aint Ever Going To Happen

LET THE TRUTH BE TOLD

1805 signatures disagree, the closing date is August btw

Who's saying that all 16&17 year olds will vote YES

I would think privately educated 16&17 year olds where more likley to be educationally brainwashed in favour of the union Or Lower class 16&17 year olds are more likley to vote for the party their parents have voted for

The point is guys yous have jumped on the Anti Alex Salmond bandwagon, giving 16&17 year olds the vote is not an advantage to the SNP, its a RIGHT that our future should vote on our future

Here is a link which will show the unionist parties favour giving 16&17 year olds the vote but hypocritically not for the Scottish referendum

http://www.votesat16.org/about/campaign-history/

Say what you like about Alex Salmond and us Snp Supporters its your right but so is it the right of a tax payer to have a VOTE

Vote Yes, join the 1805

Grandad,

By 2014, These 16 & 17 year olds will have the vote anyway.
More interesting would be the views of the 2nd/3rd and some 4th years, who will be 16/17 in Autumn 2014.
They may not look so favourably on the people who would deny them a say in their future.

Also, what sort of area is this school in?

You may have a point, but once again you demonstrate your inane inability to reason a real solution. So, let me help you.

No one should vote until at least 18.

No one should pay any tax until at least 18.

Everyone should be encouraged not to have children until much later in their life, when they can understand their responsibilities to them, and at least 18.

No one should be allowed anywhere near the army until at least 18, and no one should be sent to a conflict they don't understand ever, or at least until they're 18.

No one should get married until at least 18, if at all.



And I would add that no one should be allowed onto our roads driving any type of motorised vehicle until at least 18 (21 preferably).

All education should last until at least 18, the final years aimed at either university entrance or indentured trades.

No one under the age of 18 should live anywhere other than with their parents, and if they don't have any, and no other substitute family members to fulfil a guidance role, they they should be living in a community provided shelter with suitable role models.

But I tell you what Dougie, I would go further, possible even resetting the bar for all of this to 21 years of age.


I don't need my grandchildren telling me that they know better than the many years of real life experience I possess Dougie.

I don't need my life controlled by pubescent, hormone ravaged and illogical children.

But of course, this doesn't mean that we shouldn't take account of their developing opinions. After all, society belongs to all of us. But it's our responsibility to leave the planet in the best shape we can for future generations.

And it irks me that my generation, the baby boomers, have well and truly allowed our nation to be fecked by vested interests.

But then Dougie, you like vested interests don't you?

Oh to be that age again, nothing to do at night except stand around on street corners annoying the neighbours, swigging illegally bought plonk,
What I don't understand is teenagers at them ages can go to work, get married join the forces, but they cannot go to a pub or club
So they can either stay at home and play dot to dot by joining up the plucks on the face or do the above stand on a corner
So if they do get the vote this would be a chance to get a few demands in, not that any party would listen
