Petition · past parliament

Guarantee British Nationals rights in the EU before the signing of Article 50.

Rejected 11 signatures

What the petition asks

This has been a major issue since the referendum and has not yet been resolved. Why has this not been discussed in more detail in the commons? Why should EU foreign nationals have more, even better rights, than British Nationals living abroad in the EU?

Why it was rejected

There was already a petition about this issue. Duplicates are rejected so signatures collect in one place.

Offer a unilateral guarantee of the rights of EU citizens in the UK post Brexit
