Right to vote for British Citizens irrespective of where they are registered
Expats and Brits working and living abroad have no right to vote if they have not been registered in the UK for 15 years!
We have not deserted Britain, we may return in the future.
The elections / referendums in Britain affect us directly too!
We would like a voice!
Preventing us from having a vote in our own country and also not being allowed to vote in the country that we choose to live and work in, is contrary to the fundamental european principle of "freedom of movement within the EU" It's not freedom of movement if you are forced to either, return to your country of birth or reject your origins and take on the citizenship of the country in which you now reside.
You can't sign this petition because it is now closed. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
