16/17-year-olds ought to be represented in the EU referendum. It's their future.

Petition Details

The Scottish independence referendum allowed younger citizens to vote. The UK's place in the EU is a decision of similar magnitude. Many young people who were not eligible to vote have expressed dismay with the result of the referendum. They should be engaged with the politics of their country.
