Should we lower the voting age?

The Scottish referendum might be over but it's still having a massive affect on the political landscape. SNP leader Alex Salmond's now calling on the voting age to be lowered - after 16 and 17 years olds took part in last weeks' vote. It's something campaign group V Inspired have been lobbying the government to do in time for next year's general election.
