MP's move to let 16-year-olds vote

MP's move to let 16-year-olds vote :
"SIXTEEN-YEAR-OLDS could be heading to the polls at the next state election under new legislation to be introduced to Parliament within the next month."

This is a joke, surely. At 16 students are learning about our political system and some have some valid views, but their political knowledge is very much in the embryonic phase. We really have gone mad.
