The right to retain/choose between British or European citizenship post brexit
British citizens not wanting to give up their European citizenship should have the right to retain or choose their citizenship and a special law made to cover this.
As a British citizen holding an EU passport I do not want to give up my rights under European law.
As a British citizen we are already hampered and restricted on who we can marry and bring back to the UK with recent law changes. Living overseas in a calm but unstable country and married to a Chinese lady for 16yrs European citizenship allows us the right to travel into Europe (not the Uk) in the event of termoil. By relinquishing my EU status I would have to choose between leaving my wife to protect herself and protecting my children who are British citizens. British law does not recognise a family unit
