Legislate for Votes for Life

Petition Details

UK Citizens living elsewhere in the European Union lose their right to vote in UK Elections and Referendums after 15 years away. Many still pay taxes in the UK, and rely on UK State Pensions. Votes for Life has been promised but not delivered. We seek legislation now.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We're not sure whether you would like the Government to extend the right to vote to all UK citizens living abroad, or only those who live in the EU.

You may like to sign this petition instead:

petition.parliament.uk/petitions/200005

Otherwise, you could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
