Encase any of you didn't know UKYP (United Kingdom Youth Parliament) is a youth organisation funded and ran with the government to get teenagers into Politics and allow them to press important issues to parliament. I see it as probably the best way for youths to have their say on the UK Government and although they haven't changed too much as of yet, it's probably the most affective way if any so it's worth checking out.
In their 'Battle of the Campaigns' this year you can vote on campaigns you want UKYP to support, they'll then take the top 6 issues chosen by us to the House of Lords, then take it down to 3 and then press the government for change on these three issues.
To find out about all the campaigns check this out: http://www.ukypforums.org.uk/forumdisplay.php?f=43
And to cast your votes on things you want changing, check this thread out: http://www.ukypforums.org.uk/showthread.php?t=3007
