Give British Citizens in the EU a vote on the final Brexit deal.

Rejected 20 signatures

What the petition asks

British Citizens resident in the EU for more than 15 yrs were excluded from the original Brexit referendum, yet their lives will be profoundly affected by the final outcome.

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. In particular, we're not sure whether you want a referendum on the final deal for the UK's exit from the EU, which includes British Citizens resident in the EU for more than 15 years, or whether you want only British Citizens living in the EU to have a vote on the final deal for the UK's exit from the EU.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
