Would you change your nationality?

For which one

How could I improve on British?

 

[LeicsDom]

That's an interesting question.
With Brexit looming some people are considering applying for dual Irish/British nationality to allow themselves to continue to take advantage of the lack of restrictions travelling within Europe

True that: not much of a choice there.
Unless you are rotten rich, of course, and the world would be basically yourself, and virtually whatever you do could be a fine choice.

Change no my partner and I are American And British having lived and worked for 15 years in London. We would love to give up our American Citizenship. But it costs a lot a real lot and you still have to do american Taxes for another 10 years.

Which is pretty much like saying that one is Welsh and British, or Yankee and Belter.

Damn Feds, they are clever!

I'm not that attached to my passport in reality. It wouldn't really change the fact I was born, raised and spent most of life stuck on the island! Might have to marry an EU citizen just to keep options open going forward.

I wish that I was able to also have Dutch citizenship.

 

[HoodedRat]

No, I'm already English.

I can't see brexit making much difference to travel in Europe. Norway and Switzerland aren't in the EU, but travel there is pretty straightforward. There would be more red tape if I wanted to go to the USA.

^ Less travelling, more living and working. I agree for the most part though.

 

[Benvolio]

I would consider Australian, British, Canadian or Irish.

 

[Cormac135]

No i pretty much lucked out.

 

[Alistair]

What incentive?

 

[freefall]

Having a dual citizenship would be a delight. Too bad my country enforces the law of only having one, so in case I want to apply new citizenship elsewhere, I have to drop my country. Having a Germany or British wouldn't be shabby.

This a proud Scot. Although i do hold dual nationality, an Australian passport, thanks to my first love and Australia recognising same sex long term relationships.

I had to take prove to the Consul of how long we had been together, although it helped that he had dual British/Australian nationality.

I understand that the fact you would have to go through the non-EU channels is what is causing anxiety.I am not so sure it willmake a lot of difference. Maybe it is just the EU stirring up trouble again

There. Fixed it for you.

If it didn't cost a zillion dollar to do so, you mean? Yes. I'd be Australian.
