Rejected petition Allow 16 and 17 year olds to vote if there is another EU referendum.
Brexit will affect young people more than any other age group. No political event has engaged young people in politics as much as Brexit. We must allow 16 and 17 year olds to vote if there is a final say -(People’s vote or whatever you want to call it).
