We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to Opt out of European citizenship. More details
Submitted by Derek Bennett – Deadline to sign up by: 08 May 2008 – Signatures: 148
With the signing of the Maastricht Treaty the people of Britain were given duel citizenship – both European and British. This extra tier of citizenship was thrust upon the people without their consent – and in many cases knowledge.
The people of Great Britain should be allowed the option of opting out of European citizenship if they so wish. The Government will then be able to provide those who have opted out with British documentation only such as British (not EU) passports, driving licences and other national documents. EU laws will also not apply to those who have opted out of European citizenship.
