Allow 16 and 17 year olds across the UK the right to vote in general elections.

Political decisions have a huge impact on the lives of young people, highlighted recently with the A-levels disaster. It isn't right that young people cannot exercise any democratic right and respond to government action.

N.B.:
16 and 17 year olds can drive, have sex, leave home (where it is unlikely a court will approve a parental order to bring the child back), can become employed and get married with consent (or no consent in Scotland).
