A new poll reveals that British teenagers are more patriotic than their parents, casting doubt on Labour’s recent move to extend voting rights to 16 and 17-year-olds. The survey, conducted by More in Common for The Sunday Times, shows that nearly half—49 percent—of teens express pride in being British, while only 10 percent report feeling ashamed. That’s a stronger patriotic sentiment than the national average, where 45 percent say they are proud and 15 percent ashamed.
