Hold a second EU Referendum in which 14-17 year olds have the option to vote.
I believe that 14-17 year olds across the country should be allowed to vote in a second EU referendum, as they are the next generation of people who will be affected by the decision the country has made. Their voices may give a truer representation of what the country really believes.
Some people may argue that they are not mature enough to vote, but they will be voting on the future of their generation, and I believe that it is very important that they are able to do so, as they may not be able to change it if things do not go the way they want.
