Standardise rules regarding the organisation and legal result of referendums
There is a considerable inconsistency in recent referendums held in the UK. The Scottish referendum allowed 16 year olds to vote, while the Brexit referendum did not. The results are also not legally binding resulting in public outcry from both sides.
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:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We're not sure exactly what rules you'd like standardising.
You could start a new petition requring all UK referendums to be legally binding and be open to people from the age of 16 if that is what you'd like to see happen.
