Let the younger generation have their say on the EU Referendum

Rejected 15 signatures

What the petition asks

The younger generation are yet to have their say on the EU Referendum and I feel this is necessary as this generation is the one who has to grow up in this country. I feel that anyone who would be old enough to vote by the next general election should have a say on our future.

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

It's not clear how you would like young people to be able to have their say. You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like to happen.
