Petition Action

Parliament must allow 16 and 17 year olds the right to vote in a 2nd referendum.

Petition Details

The Scottish Parliament, correctly, gave the vote in their Independence Referendum to young people. The U.K. EU referendum should have been the same. Young people have the most to lose and for the longest period of time.

Additional Information
