I have to smile at all the people who consider themselves to be young people, not understanding what experience is and the fact you can't buy it on Amazon.
I wonder whether people's views will change when they get a few more years under their belts?

Good points again Livia.
Age isn't a barrier nor should it he.
Winston Churchill was near 80 when ending his last term as PM.
I've always believed I can learn from all ages.
I may disagree with Ann Widdecombe but not because of her age.
I agree with for instance Michael Heseltine.
He was my Dad's favourite in politics.
I still agree mostly with Heseltine.
I'm just using 2 elder Statespersons as examples of one I agree with, one I don't.
Their age not relevant to be at all.
I think if you are fit, eager and dedicated in wanting to he in politics or achieve something.
That's great.
Nothing to do with age in my view at all.
