All UK expatriates be allowed to vote in future UK Elections and Referendums

Petition Details

Expatriates living outside the UK for 15 years or more do not have the right to vote in UK Elections and Referendums. We believe that it is wrong as their lives may be affected by the outcomes. Remove the time limit to allow all UK citizens to vote in Elections and Referendums.
