Mutual freedom of movement for citizens of UK, Canada, Australia & NZ.
Commonwealth realms of Canada, Australia & NZ are all highly developed economies sharing the same language and cultural values as the UK. A freedom of movement initiative between these four countries would bring enormous mutual economic, political & sociological opportunities for their citizens.

You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. The UK Government can press the other Governments in agreeing to freedom of movement but it does not have the power to create freedom of movement on its own. You could start a petition calling on the Government to press other Commonwealth countries to accept a freedom of movement agreement, and to offer free movement to citizens from certain countries.
