Reduce voting age to 16 in a future referendum on the UK's membership of the EU.

Petition Details

There has been criticism that younger people, i.e. those who are likely to be affected by that vote for the longest period of their lives, were not allowed to join in the referendum on the UK's membership of the EU. This petition seeks to address that issue.
