MY nationality is my birthright, it is sacrosanct it cannot be bought, sold, traded or otherwise messed around with.
ONLY I may attempt to alter it or so I believed!
However, in reply to a written question from Lord Stoddart of Swindon, Lord Henley of the Home Office seems to suggest that this is not the case.
The former asked by what process a British subject may renounce their EU citizenship. The reply was to the effect that for most Britons it is not possible to renounce EU citizenship and to remain a UK national!
Here we see confirmation, (despite repeated denials) that without consultation we have become “citizens” of what we were for many years assured was a trading group, and any attempt to rescind this status will result in loss of nationality!
Absolutely disgusted!
