Now the General Election is over we are again in campaigning; trying to ensure that in the next clection Young People can vote at 18. We have with the return of a Labour Government gained influence. We have among our signatures, 3 Cabinet Ministers, 7 other members of the Government and a total of 44 MP's. Supporters include:- Lord Gardiner, Tony Greenwood, Barbara Castle, and 42 other M.P's, Angus Wilson, Benjamin Britten, Lord Ted Willis, Lady Longford, Bertrand Russell, Jimmy Hill, Sylvia Syms and Freddie and the Dreamers.

We urgently need people to help in the following ways: collecting signatures, circulating petitions, duplicating , writing letters, raising money etc. If any reader of The Weck can assist in any way (or suggest anyone we should contact) please write to me at 7 Spring Gardens, Wallington, Surrey.
