This petition was made to make a statement about the drinking age in Ireland and how it must be lowered. There is too many drunk teenagers wandering the streets. It would be much safer for them to be in a bar or pub. Lower It From 18 to 16 years.

The increase in support has gained the attention of a national policy researcher who requested a formal summary of our key arguments. I am currently drafting a letter to the Department of Health outlining how this change aims to improve public safety.

about time honestly. everyone does it anyway so let them be inside a pub where it is safer than some field in the middle of nowhere.

should be 16. kids drinking in parks is dangerous and there is zero supervision. open the pubs up to them so they can learn how to act properly.

makes sense. 18 makes no difference to the drinking culture here. just let them have a pint in a decent environment.
