Rejected petition Guarantee British citizens human right to live, work & retire within the EU

British citizens currently have the right to live, work and retire within the European Union. Leaving the EU is likely to strip British citizens of this legally implied human right. Ensure that this right is not forcibly stripped away against our will. The undersigned wish this to retain this right.
