Letter to the editor

Dear Sir,

In our last English lesson we have read Mr. Ross's article, which is called "Voting At 16", in the newspaper "Voices of the UK".

Basically what it says is, that voting at the age of 16 is too early. The editor mean, that young people are not in the position to have knowledge about the government. You told us in your article about your daughter, who isn't interested in politics and you say, that every teenager is like your daughter, which means they aren't able to vote the government.

I disagree with you. I think, voting at the age of 16 is a good chance, that teenagers are able to say there opinion about the government. We all know that we teenager are the future and so it is very important, that we have the chance to vote, also if some teenagers aren't interested in politics.

Regards

Gregor Barth
