Lower the voting age to 16 for youths domiciled in the UK
I believe 16 year olds today are more socially aware than ever before. We can get married and have children, get a job or start an apprentiship but we don’t have the right to vote. We understand the politics of this country and have our own political views, but we have no voice to express them.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
There's already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.
You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.
