Synopsis

SPEAKERS Waleed Aly, Scott Stephens, Lisa Hill ABC Radio National Podcast - Recorded live at WOMADelaide If our current politics is failing our children, should they get a say in changing it? After all 16 and 17 years olds already pay taxes, work, drive, volunteer for political parties. Not that any of these are a pre-requisite for voting in Australia, so why exclude young people? Especially when the policy decisions made now will be felt for decades when it comes to things like energy, climate and the environment.
