Extend the EU referendum voting age to 16

Petition Details

Just so that the Government knows there's public support for such a thing, I move that the EU referendum voting age be reduced to 16. Why? The outcome of the referendum will affect 16 and 17-year olds just as much as anyone else. Why exclude them from the decision making?
