2nd EU Referendum - 16 and 17 year olds should be given the right to vote

Petition Details

We the undersigned believe that 16 and 17 year olds deserve to have a say in their future, because they will be the generation that feels the consequences of the EU Referendum the longest. Therefore, there should be another Referendum in which 16 and 17 year olds are given the right to vote!

Additional Information

Why shouldn't we have a say in our future? We can fight and die for our country at 16, so why can't we vote in it? Why shouldn't we have a say in what is claimed to be "the most important vote in our lives"?

We are the generation that will feel the impact of this Referendum the longest, please give us our right to vote. Our voices deserve to be heard!
