16-year-olds have been able to join PN for years

The Moviment Żgħażagħ Partit Nazzjonalista said today that the Nationalist Party had opened its doors wide for membership of 16-year-olds years ago.

Labour leader Joseph Muscat yesterday announced he will propose lowering the age threshold for MLP membership to 16 from the current 18.

The MŻPN said in a statement it had always encouraged political thought in young people and had also proposed, more than five months ago, that 16-year-olds should be given the right to vote in local elections.

This same proposal, the MŻPN said, was repeated by Dr Muscat some weeks ago.
