This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament

Rejected petition Have a second EU referendum in 2018 before we leave.

After Article 50 is invoked it will take two years before we leave EU. All current 16-17 year olds will then be adults eligible to vote on their future. It is also possible that the Europe we have voted to leave now will be different then and we may want to reconsider our position at that time.
