Lower the voting age to 16 for the upcoming general election.
Teenagers below the age of 18 are having no say in the future government that will be elected on the 8th June. This will affect 16-17 year olds as much as it will 18 year olds. Young people often study government and politics and understand it but are not being able to decide.
