This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament
Rejected petition UK Government to confirm EU citizens already living in UK can stay post Brexit.
In light of the referendum result and the uncertainty it brings, the Government must state unequivocally that those EU citizens already living in the UK will not be asked to leave.
More details
With racist attacks and inflamitory statements being made by a small minority, this powerful message will give comfort and reassurance to those EU citizens who have made the UK their home. We must show solidarity at this time of uncertainty.
