Reinstate the voting rights of British citizens living overseas
Bring this to the floor of the house. British citizens who have lived overseas for more than 15 years are not entitled to vote, even though they may be UK tax payers. Allow no filibustering. This has been promised by the last 3 Tory leaders
It is their duty to get rid of this totally unfair situation which is not upheld by other nations
