Rejected petition Stop the Government revoking the British citizenship from British subjects

Clause 9 of the bill - “Notice of decision to deprive a person of citizenship”, now exempts the Government from giving notice to an individual if they deem you are a national security threat. With this bill, the government can deem you a threat and revoke your citizenship without your knowledge.

More details

This bill as is against all morals of this country, it goes against everything the democracy stands for as this is a subtle example of ethnic minority segregation, and racism against people of non British ethnic backgrounds because you are revoking someone of their rights as a British citizen because of their ethnicity. We, as a democratic society need to make a change and not allow the British government to remove British citizenship of an individual without their awareness in advance.
