Lower voting age to 16 for a second EU referendum.

Petition Details

In the June 2016 referendum, 16 and 17 year olds were denied the opportunity to vote for and shape their futures, despite the decision disproportionately affecting the younger generations. The undersigned call on HM Government to lower the voting age to 16 for any subsequent EU referendum.
