Hold a referendum on EU membership including votes from 16 and 17 year olds.
Polls from the EU referendum show a huge difference in the voting preferences of young and older people. Young people have been shown to hugely favour remaining in Europe. 16 and 17 year olds were excluded from voting on an issue which will affect their future. This is not democracy.
