Ms Dyer says she's received confirmation from Britain's Home Office that her citizenship has been renounced.

"I’ve received confirmation that my application to renounce my British citizenship was officially processed in the UK... rendering me eligible to continue my campaign," she said.

"Hard copy paperwork has been posted and is currently in transit. We have confirmation from Royal Mail that the document is on its way," she said.Ms Dyer has called for Section 44 of the Australian Constitution to be amended, describing the citizenship laws as "inhibitors" to the democratic process. "This in turn prevents us from ensuring that our parliament is truly representative of the Australian people it serves."

Scomo’s lies aren’t cutting through to voters. AUSTRALIAN NEWS is proud to predict that Scott Morrison will lose his seat badly with a swing against him of 13.5% points. Congratulations to all Australian voters

UK is us

I am glad that instanterudite is cleared to run in the election. Personally would vote NO to section 44 constitutional change. The reasoning around obligation to another country is sound. However if a person has made all reasonable attempts to revoke citizenship... AusVotes

Noticed she now wants the law changed to favour who past predicament. Our laws our way thank you not our laws your way.

Didn't she need to have that sorted before now?

She's not big on 'forward planning' then I take it?

Too late under S44 Constitution.

Independent LOL
