Make the vote open to 16 year olds.
Young people are often silenced and they have very little say in the issues that affect their future. The older generation often make our important decisions for us, but we are the next generation so I believe we deserve a voice.
At 16 you are allowed to work, pay taxes, have sex, get married and raise a child yet we're not allowed to vote on issues pertaining to the aforementioned responsibilities.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
There's already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.
You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.
