Indeed not every 16 year old have parents to aid in their decisions. You obviously need to get out and actually meet some 16 year olds.
You can roll your eyes as much as you like, as well as avoid answering the points I have made to your direct remarks.

I have 6x children and 10x grandchildren. You know nothing about me and the number of 16 year olds I have met and, indeed, helped into adulthood.

It's the children's judgement I'm questioning and I'm sadly forced into questioning your judgement.

Why can't you just concede that Labour's intention is entirely down to counting the children's votye at the next GE?
