I just watched your TedX talk today. I found it really interesting, particularly the notion of a 'none of the above' vote being an option. I'm at uni as a mature student (mature in the sense of being 25, I still behave like a teen) and I find it a struggle to get people in my classes, mostly of 18 and 19, to discuss politics let alone see a reason to vote. I shall be recommending your video for sure.
So questions..
1) In the video you called on politicians to prove you wrong if they were doing everything to engage with young voters. Has an MP contacted you regarding this?
2) Do you think there is a chance that politics will wake up and use your suggested methods to get young people to vote?
3) Favourite moment of MIC and cast member?
