Your entire argument is just generalities tarring all 16-17 year olds with the same brush, while ignoring that most of your criticisms apply to other age groups anyway.

Yeah, most people are stupid cunts, age has nothing to do with it.

"Live only for today" being a reason excluding people from voting would mean we'd need an upper age limit too, because the old cunts who voted Brexit sure aren't voting for tomorrow, they'll be dead by then.

Considering how much damage old cunts do all the loving time, this argument is loving absurd and insulting.

Now I could feel sorry for the fact that all your elder relatives are arseholes that make you think this, or I could tell youse to gently caress right off with this bullshit. I'm old enough that some of you cunts have suggested I and my peers get disenfranchised because you are scared of old people (or scared of what you fear you might become based on your own families?), and yet none of my contemporary friends, nor myself have ever voted Tory in our lives. Hell my dad is in his 80s and has never voted Tory. Must be poo poo only knowing/ being related to arseholes.

Yet weirdly when suffering from Thatcher we were able to blame the Tory voters based on how they voted not their age.

to be fair, old people are utterly terrified of young people and constantly support/call for measures that either directly or indirectly gently caress young people over, so a few young-uns punching back isn't that bad

Old people have consistently voted to gently caress the poor lately. They are also consistently voting to take away rights and safety nets they themselves enjoyed when they were younger. Very few things are less charming than old cunts making an effort to make sure the next generation are worse off.
Show your working. e:Pretty sure that a large number of Tory voters are going to be younger than me

I also find it really loving precious that you seem to be personally offended by young people calling old people cunts, when old cunts have been complaining about young people since time immemorial.

Statistical true fact: Olds vote Con and Kip (apart from those that don't), Youngs vote Labour and Green (apart from those that don't).

Olds vote to gently caress Youngs.

I would be fine with banning rich country cunts. And English cunts if that wouldn't mean we actually ended up with the loving SNP running the country.

If the bloody English hadn't kept voting for Thatcher the SNP wouldn't be what they are now - so it's your own fault.
Based on figures here we should just ban anyone earning over £20k a year. Which I'm fine with.

There is something so fundamentally dishonest about a public school stockbroker-turned-MEP claiming to be fighting for the common man against the elites, and then behaving in that sort of graceless, undignified way, inflaming what lurks behind the xenophobia that they are stoking up, which, in the end, is just racism. It is the very ugly face of politics.
