What the petition asks
Have a designated e-gate section for UK passport holders. Nationals from the EU and some other countries can use UK e-gates, whilst British passport holders can't use them in EU countries. We believe this is not fair, and there should be a designated e-gate section for UK passport holders.
Currently British passport holders often have to wait in long lines in Europe then again when returning home, due to having to queue in the same line as nationals from other countries, including the EU.
