British Youth Council to Campaign Before Next Election

BYC wants this new Parliament to put into practice the actions young people know will make their lives better.

This must be held on or before Thursday 3 June 2010.

650 MPs will be elected to the House of Commons to represent people across the UK.

These MPs will, along with Peers in the House of Lords, make up the UK Parliament.

BYC wants this new Parliament to put into practice the actions young people know will make their lives better.

It's our Parliament too. We want our vision to inform and influence what it does.

To make sure this happens BYC is going to campaign before the next Election with a General Election Manifesto.

This will detail FIVE specific things Parliament must do (new laws they must make, Government work they must examine) to make the lives of everyone aged 25 and under better.

BYC will lobby existing MPs, people who are running to be elected as an MP in the General Election and Peers from the House of Lords to sign up to take these 5 actions once a new Parliament is formed.

We want YOU to create this General Election Manifesto. If you could make Parliament do something specifically for young people - what would it be?

There's also the chance to win £50 in high street vouchers by entering our prize draw - TELL US by copying and pasting this link into your browser search and taking the survey!
