Around 23 Million Boys Have Married Before Reaching 15; ‘We Can End this Violation’ – UNICEF | Alternative



Why do some wish to impose their set of values and accepted behaviour on others, all the time. This is simply Empire building. Remember the British Empire, my Bible, my religion, my language, my laws and my dress code. It, like all of the other Empires, failed. Why should kids not marry young at any age after puberty?

In Scotland, we may marry at the age of 16. However, in other countries, which make up the UK, the age is 18 which was, only a few decades ago, raised from 21

Some areas of Scotland, which is supposedly a prosperous country due to oil, although still receiving Grants for the EEC Iron and Steel fund as a poor country. This Fund was set up, prior to UK joining the EU,to compensate for the loss of heavy engineering, steel making and coal mining, all of which were closed down.

In many Central Valley areas of Scotland, the life expectancy figure is in the low 50's. Just what is it in India, Bangladesh, Tibet or in the war zones of Syria and Iraq. Surely the religious mafia would rather have a ceremony rather than just wholesale shagging. In most cases, these young kids do not know their age. So why not have a party, get dancing, enjoy yourself and don't invite a cruise missile!!
