Just reminded. The next #elections, state and federal, will have the #Howard kids. There are a massive cohort. Schools everywhere expanded to meet the demand and they have all started uni and/or job.

They were also the group who been bought up believing in individual rights of sexuality, body shaming is bad and the church and institutions were full of sexual predators.
