Do not remove anyone's British citizenship

Closed 514 signatures

What the petition asks

We want the Government to not take away anyone's British citizenship regardless of the circumstance and how it was obtained. British citizenship is a right.
The Government are trying to pass a law which will allow the Home Office to remove citizenship without notice. This would make appealing the decision very difficult, as a person would not know if their citizenship had been removed. A lot of these people have been living in the UK all their lives and its inhuman. British citizenship is a right not a privilege.
