There is a big push to lower the voting age to 13.
The muslims want their wives to be able to vote.

Anything to get the islamic vote. The UK intentionally ended itself.

The Mayor of London.

Not low enough.

Ten year olds are people, too.

Why stop there? Why not let 10 year olds vote, and then 6 year olds? This is simply about the faction in control of the institutions (media, academia, entertainment) ensuring a captive population brainwashed to vote their way will be enfranchised.

Well, Taylor would probably be an improvement over who they’ve got now.

Yeah. Well, the Brits won't vote for Taylor.

NYC = London regarding their mayor.

Eventually, their mayor will be the next PM.

Well, during her recent Eras tour in London, she did 5 sold-out shows at Wembley Stadium for a total of 460,000 attendees, and it's said that due to the clamor for tickets, she probably could have sold out 10 more.

Figure that's 1.3 million screaming 16-year-old girls who would vote for her. LOL

Taylor may get elected today. But tomorrow? Nah. Things are changing in the UK.

"Expecting democrats to propose the same here. Sheer lunacy."

They already have. From 2019 and Ted Lieu's website:

125 Democrats and 1 Republican Vote to Lower Voting Age to 16

The one Republican who voted for it was Michael Burgess of Texas, and he retired on January 3rd of this year.

It is a biblical curse for a country to be ruled by its youth.

There was a movie from the 1960’s called “Wild in the Streets”. A rock star was running for office, and the chant ended up being “14 or fight”. The established Pols were all in to lower voting ages, as they figure they could benefit, but it got out of control.

Was that to lower the age of consent for pedos?

Only 13? It won’t be long before they demand it be lowered to 6, so the false prophet’s wife could have voted.

They might actually be somewhat conflicted about this, however, since they are also against women of any age voting.

Whoever offers the most free stuff will win that vote.
