If an 18-year-old can't represent anyone over 25, nobody over 25 can represent 18-year-olds - so 18-year-olds and anyone younger has no representation at all! How ridiculous is that?

Tim H, Leeds,

Now I know the country has gone mad this child has had no experience of life, it is especially gauling given that the politicans were talking about raising the drinking age to 21. So now it is okay to be an MP and die for your country but not to have a drink. This is totally inane, we need candidates that have had a least 10 years in a working enviroment and by that I mean work not as a political researcher or straight from university.We do not need another dose of nepotism or another person who wants to make their way in the world as a career poltician without any life skills/experience. Would she have been selected if her Grandad father and Uncle were not part of the Labour aristocracy, I very much doubt it.

Would Miss Benn like to quantify
"Passion matters as much as experience"
Try telling your Local council, who are asking for staff that I have passion but not experience your CV and application will probably get as far as the waste bin.
