New Democratic Audit e-collection: Should the UK lower the voting age to 16?

Today Democratic Audit releases a new e-collection of pieces which debate the merits of whether to lower the UK’s age of enfranchisement from 18 to 16. Featuring expert contributions from campaigners, academics, and politicians, our aim is to heighten the level debate on this proposal. In introducing the report, the co-editors of the report, Richard Berry and Sean Kippin put the case for the change, and argue that a better standard of debate is sorely required.
