We’ve been having this conversation for years, and all the expert evidence points to raising the age to at least 14 and helping children avoid contact with the criminal legal system. 14 is the bare minimum. Anything less is Labor falling short. #RaiseTheAge#FirstNationsJustice

A tile saying "Raise the age to 14. We've been having this conversation for years. Here are the headlines to prove it ->" Above, a squiggly line, akin to a representation of a creek or river in Indigenous artwork, runs across the image with years from 2018-2024 spaced along it.
A tile showing a screenshot of a news.com.au article from 2018, headlined "Calls to raise age of criminal responsibility to 16". A snippet from the article is shown, with "The UN has repeatedly rebuked Australia for maintaining such a low age" highlighted.
A tile showing a screenshot of an ABC article from 2020, headlined "Australian post photos of themselves at 10 years old to back #RaiseTheAge campaign". A snippet from the article is shown, reading "On Instagram and twitter today, you'll probably come across a bunch of faded old photos of kids in the 90s. It's all part of the #RaiseTheAge campaign - a push to keep kids as young as 10 out of Australian prisons, and raise the age of criminal responsibility to 14 years old."
A tile showing a screenshot of an Age article from 2022, headlined "Parliamentary inquiry recommends raising age of criminal responsibility to 14". A snippet from the article is shown, essentially providing the same information as the headline.
