It is, but that's alarming across the board.

So I think people at 16 should have the right to vote.

I had my child when I was 16, it paid taxes.

I think it's important that they have a stake in it.

I think there's a question on political education and making sure that people are informed about the vote.

I think there's a question around the extremism of what's happening, the polarisation of politics at the moment.

You can't respectfully disagree anymore.

It's you either have to be binary, you're that or you're that.

I don't like that in my own political movement, let alone beyond the boundaries of that.

I think often like, you know, people are talking about topical at the moment around mobile phones and online harm, etc.,

You know, when I speak to, I've got a 16-year-old who's nearly 17, one that's just turned 18, and I've got a 29-year-old.

And the younger ones, they're more savvy.

They've grown up with the internet.

They've grown up with social media.

So they can distinguish between some of it.

But the challenge is that the wider discourse in politics at the moment is you can't have a nuanced position.

And that I find quite worrying.

It's either a sound bite, a click bite, or whatever.

And therefore, if you try and explain something that is a bit more complex, that it's not just a, okay, well, for example, get Brexit done.

Okay, right, we get Brexit done.
