votes at 16 update

I have done a bit of Digging around the area of the votes at 16 coalition.

It is the stance of the Conservative Party that the voting age is an arbitrary notion in the first instance, so we should leave it at 18. Otherwise, we could lower it to 14 or 15 or 15 and 3 1/4 or any ridiculously random age.

I am sometimes perhaps overly skeptical about things, I will admit, but to be honest, if we lower the age, who would use their vote?
