It's not just their opportunities, their futures, their freedoms – leaving without a deal risks young people's trust in politics too

Regardless of the European election results, the rhetoric on “binning the backstop” will begin again next week. But more than any time in the past two decades, politicians from Westminster need to show courage and leadership on Northern Ireland.

If any of the candidates genuinely cared about listening to and engaging with younger voices, they would commit to a vote on the final Brexit deal.

This may very well be the last time we get to vote in these elections, and a large part of how the next years shape up will be down to us. Our future is in our hands.

As we enter the crucial parliamentary debate on the Brexit debate, politicians risk repeating the same old mistake - ignoring our country’s young. Brexit happened two years ago and we still know nothing - that’s why 80,000 people have joined me in signing a petitioncalling on the Prime Minister to talk to us about what is happening with the negotiations.
