Allow 16-18 year olds to vote in UK referendums

Petition Details

The recent EU referendum resulted in a vote to 'leave' the European Union, despite 75% of the younger generation voting to remain. To prevent these voices being ignored again, give 16-18 year olds the vote to ensure future referendums are completely representative of the UK population.
