Rejected petition Give 16-18 year olds a vote whether to remain in the EU.

16 / 17 year olds are the future & have been ignored in this referendum. Old enough to have sex, live alone and raise a family but not to vote.

Allow them a vote. If support for remain exceeds 2 million...

Call a new referendum for over 16s.

It is thier future, not our past that counts
