Lower the voting age to 16 in the event of a second EU Referendum
Petition to lower the voting age to 16 in the event of a second EU referendum in the UK.
As young people who are most affected by the outcome of this vote we believe we have been cheated of an opportunity to take control of our future.
75% of 18-24 year olds voted to Remain within the EU.
