Let 16 and 17 year olds vote in referendums that will effect their future.
Far to many rulings are made that will effect the future of 16 and 17 year olds that they have no say in. At the age 16 and 17 you should be able to be involved in the making of these decisions. Therefor it is only fare they should be given the vote.
A prime example of this is the EU referendum where a decision was made with out any input of the people it will effect most the younger generation.
