Ten Minute Rule Motion: Electoral Reform (Proportional Representation and Reduction of Voting Age)
74 Aye / 81 No · lost by 7 · 155 MPs recorded
What this vote was about
This bill proposes lowering the UK voting age from 18 to 16. It would allow teenagers aged 16 and 17 to vote in parliamentary elections. Some other countries and local councils already allow this, but it would be a significant change for UK national elections if passed.
