Allow UK citizens aged 16 & 17 a supplementary vote in the EU referendum.

Petition Details

UK citizens aged 16 and 17 were allowed to vote in the Scottish independence referendum in September 2014. People of this age are allowed to marry, pay taxes and fight and die as members of our armed forces. It is only fair and democratic that their opinions about their futures are respected.
