Urgent EU vote extension for 16-18 year olds in England, Wales & N. Ireland

Rejected 14 signatures

What the petition asks

It is undemocratic to allow Scottish 16-18 year olds to vote and exclude them elsewhere. Implement a emergency vote extension to allow this group to have a vote. Given how close the election was and how much this will impact the young generation they must be allowed to have a say.
