0:00:11 > 0:00:12Morning.

0:00:12 > 0:00:15I'm Martin, and this is Newsround.

0:00:15 > 0:00:19First, can you imagine how it would it feel if someone told

0:00:19 > 0:00:22you your opinion didn't matter just because you were a girl?

0:00:22 > 0:00:25Well, that's what it was like until 100 years ago this week

0:00:25 > 0:00:27in the UK, when women and poorer men weren't allowed

0:00:27 > 0:00:29to vote for their MP.

0:00:29 > 0:00:33These kids have been finding out what that was like.

0:00:33 > 0:00:37Today, we're going to be voting on some really,

0:00:37 > 0:00:40really important issues that will have an effect on all of you.

0:00:40 > 0:00:42You have been split into two teams.

0:00:42 > 0:00:44We have the Yellows, and we have the Greens.

0:00:44 > 0:00:47We're going to vote on whether...

0:00:48 > 0:00:56..only have Brussels sprouts for the rest of the whole week.

0:00:56 > 0:00:59Write yes or no on here, what you agree with.

0:00:59 > 0:01:01OK?

0:01:01 > 0:01:05Place your votes, and then go back and sit in the middle.

0:01:05 > 0:01:08So we have just got the votes in.

0:01:08 > 0:01:11And the Yellows voted for the Greens having to eat Brussels sprouts

0:01:11 > 0:01:17for the rest of the week.

0:01:17 > 0:01:20Next, we're going to have a race.

0:01:20 > 0:01:23Greens versus Yellows.

0:01:23 > 0:01:27To see who can cross the room the fastest.

0:01:27 > 0:01:30But we're going to have a vote on whether...

0:01:41 > 0:01:45The class have voted...

0:01:45 > 0:01:51that the Greens will only be allowed to hop.

0:01:51 > 0:01:53Go!

0:01:59 > 0:02:03Hands up if you thought those votes were unfair.

0:02:03 > 0:02:09Do you guys know that 100 years ago women were not allowed to vote?

0:02:09 > 0:02:13So imagine how they would have felt.

0:02:13 > 0:02:17After I voted, I felt kind of guilty that I had voted for something bad

0:02:17 > 0:02:19to happen to the Greens.

0:02:19 > 0:02:25I found it unfair because I am making decisions for other people.

0:02:25 > 0:02:29It's just unfair that some people can't vote and some people can.

0:02:29 > 0:02:31I was really surprised.

0:02:31 > 0:02:35I thought it was all women, and I thought that was

0:02:35 > 0:02:38unfair for only men.

0:02:38 > 0:02:41And it doesn't matter your gender, where you come from,

0:02:41 > 0:02:43or how rich you are, that you should vote.

0:02:43 > 0:02:45Everyone should be able to vote.

0:02:45 > 0:02:49Later this week, the Winter Olympics start in South Korea.

0:02:49 > 0:02:51But if you're more of a fan of summer sports, you're probably

0:02:51 > 0:02:54looking ahead to the Commonwealth Games.

0:03:13 > 0:03:18Laugher and Mears coming out with this.

0:03:18 > 0:03:21I knew it was going to be a little bit like that,

0:03:21 > 0:03:24watching it in training - this is their most difficult dive.
