Rejected petition Rerun the referendum, giving 16+ a vote, and a voice on their future.

When Scotland voted for independence, it recognised that those 16 year olds had a right to vote on their future.

The rest of the UK was denied in this vote, denying them the right to have a voice in the most important vote in the past generation.
