The Next Gen manifesto for a better Britain

We believe in a country which empowers young people.

Our vision is for Britain's youth to have a greater say in our national conversation.

Hear what we've got to say:

  • Lower voting age to 16 and teach us in school about politics
  • More funding for police, youth services and schools to protect us from knife crime
  • End minimum wage youth rate - reward workers for their work, not their age
  • Greater regulation of social media companies to safeguard us from online harm
  • End university tuition fees and increase apprenticeships
  • Declare international climate crisis
  • Include climate crisis science and anti-waste lessons on national curriculum
  • Rebuild foundations of childhood - protect parks, playing fields, youth clubs and encourage access to the countryside
  • Improve funding for health services - including child and adolescent mental health services
  • Reform capitalism so businesses pay fair tax and fair wages to ensure wealth isn't restricted to fewer and fewer people
