EU Membership for Individuals Permit free travel/study/work £4:50 week

Rejected 19 signatures

What the petition asks

People are accustomed to travelling to the mainland, without applying for a visa or a permit to wok or study.
Individual EU membership will allow those who choose to individual EU membership to remain connected and involved with their EU counterparts, without additional fees or permits.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

A decision about whether to offer membership on these terms would be the responsibility of the EU, not the UK Government. You could start a new petition asking the Government to ask for this option in negotiations with the EU.
