5 Live In Short

Available for over a year

73-year-old Peter Downey voted on behalf of his 17-year-old grandson, Freddie Wells. As Freddie is too young to have a say in the EU referendum, Peter was keen to give him a voice. Freddie said: "He came up to me and offered me the chance to persuade him and offer him my opinion on the decision that will be one of the biggest that I will ever have to make." They filled out a postal vote together and voted to remain in the EU. This clip is originally from Phil Williams on Wednesday 15 June 2016.
