This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

We're not sure exactly what you'd like the UK Government or Parliament to do. Membership of the EU is granted to countries rather than individuals.

You may wish to sign this petition calling for the UK to rejoin the EU: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/300297

You could also start a new petition asking the UK Government to negotiate with the EU to allow British citizens to retain their current freedom of movement rights within the EU.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
