Rejected petition Allow EU citizens and expats, denied a vote in 23 May 2019 elections, to vote
An as yet unknown number of EU citizens and British expats have been denied their right on vote on 23 May 2019 in the European elections.
More details
I know of several EU citizens who tried weeks before and well in advance to organise their vote, and were denied the opportunity even at that early stage. There is no excuse for the disenfranchisement of any of these people.
