Voting Age Lowered to 16+

Hey everyone,
You may have seen the big news- the UK is officially lowering the voting age to 16!
This is going to be a big change in how our democracy works. Many say it's a long-overdue recognition that young people deserve a say in their future, especially when it comes to issues like climate change, education, and mental health. Others think 16-17 yr olds might not have the life experience or political understanding to make such a big decision....
So what do you all think?
Should 16-year-olds have the vote?
Could it change the outcome of elections?
....would love to hear your thoughts!
