Rejected petition Teenagers to vote - OUR FUTURE, ALLOW US OUR INPUT-

OUR future, OUR right to vote is what I and all young people across the country are saying. Due to the age limit on voting we have to live with the choice of the older generation, we are the ones who have to pick up the pieces. We want change, we want a day in the future.

More details

We are creating the petition on the behalf of all 15,16 and 17 year olds who missed out on a opportunity to voice their opinion of OUR future of OUR country. I and many others our age are devastated on the affects that are left on this country due it the outcome of this EU referendum, but if we were allowed our say there would've been a different outcome, a different future for us young people. You may not think we are educated enough to have a voice, but times have changed.
