The Mayor of London is set to discuss the option of Londoners retaining their citizenship in Brussels today

should be allowed to have an ‘associate citizenship’ for the EU, insists Sadiq Khan.said he is ‘heartbroken’ over Brexit and will discuss the idea of giving Britons the option of retaining their citizenship with EU officials in Brussels on Tuesday. This would allow many to keep the rights they held before Brexit, including the ability to move freely between EU member states if they wish to.

He tweeted on Tuesday morning: ‘It’s no secret that I wanted to remain in the EU, but I’m determined to ensure London thrives despite Brexit.Mr Khan is set to discuss the idea with EU officials later today However, questions have been raised over how successful talks will be as the proposal would be considered unlawful under EU legislation, now the UK has left and entered a transition period.European Union‘The Prime Minister says his job is to bring the country together and move us forward and I cannot think of a better way of reconciling the differences between British voters who wanted to leave, and the millions of Londoners and British nationals who still feel and want to be European.

MayorofLondon We have left the eu so leave it alone if you want to remain in the eu then go to eu country stay over there then you can do what you like not in our lovely British country you don't

OH BARF!

SadiqKhan My g

Sadist Khunt

Pish - united & kingdom are the key words here!

Why just Londoners! Just rich Londoners who haven’t yet got an EU passport from Cyprus? Just rich Tory donors!

MayorofLondon Is he for real 🤔🤣🤣🤣😁

SadiqKhan Stay at home and fix the murder epidemic.

SadiqKhan The chances of such an initiative making headway in the negotiations are extremely limited as it would be unlawful under EU legislation. So why is' little Mayor Khan' really there? An election due of course trying to divide the country as usual. Khan doesn't speak for London/UK

SadiqKhan That’s straight away discrimination and altogether wrong and self-servinh. Excellent. One the many reasons we have left London.

😂😂😂😂😂😂.. how!

MayorofLondon Well, that’s not gonna happen. Let’s be serious here.

It’s not going to happen.

SadiqKhan While Pathetic Sadiq Khan Promotes 'HIMSELF' and 'BRAND LONDON' A boy aged 15 is fighting for life today after witnesses said he was dragged off a moped and knifed in a gang ambush.Just one of 3 victims seriously injured in a series of stabbings in just over 1 hour of bloodshed

Prick!!!

SadiqKhan All non-Londoners:

MayorofLondon The country voted to leave and leave we have. Should anyone wish to be a EU citizen can I suggest a move to a country still a part of the EU.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Shut up already will you SadiqKhan

Why should they be special? Many people didn't want it but here we are. That's why it's democracy

SadiqKhan No londoners should be British not wat u tryed to do by turning it into a blood bath because u spent the budget on party's instead of more police

SadiqKhan This cannot be real, he is mayor of London which means he is only in charge of TFL at best. Hes off his head with delusions of grandeur.

Who does he think he is

SadiqKhan

SadiqKhan Does FBPE stand for Futile Bitter Pathetic Egotists, as that appears to fit Khan and Verhofstadt perfectly.

MayorofLondon Madness.. Since when was London an independent state 🤣

MayorofLondon nickhopcroft92

SadiqKhan And

SadiqKhan Yasss!

SadiqKhan Fantastic I discussed it in my local. Then realised I don’t have the power like khan to negotiate this deal. So didn’t waste any more time and ordered shots.

Yep then build a wall around London and charge them import duties 👍👍

SadiqKhan IT'S NOT JUST LONDONERS

SadiqKhan SadiqKhan DO NOT signal out Londoners as if the rest of the Country don't matter. This is a great idea and one that Millions will back you on. You will lose if you only speak for a few and not the Many....? Learn Sadiq, speak for the Many not a few.

Retaining their foreign passports so we can deport them I'm game!!

MayorofLondon It’s nothing to do with you mr khan and you know what answer the eu will give non

MayorofLondon Given that London voted overwhelmingly to stay, this is just sensible surely? 🇪🇺

SadiqKhan Ridiculous idea I'm afraid and I'm a remainer!

SadiqKhan I hope he gets voted out and then goes away never to be heard from again.

SadiqKhan Sadiq Khan needs to explain who has funded this trip, which is seen as no more than a PR STUNT to try to undermine the Gov. and divide the Country. He is running Scared due to a pending election. Khan has failed miserably as Mayor and is using Brexit again to try to fool Voters

Mayor of London seeks attention with pointless meeting, is rewarded by Metro.

MayorofLondon Great if you can get it through, it will repair some of the damage done to some of the families and maybe stop evan more banks and industries leaving for Albania.

SadiqKhan The chances of such an initiative making headway in the negotiations are extremely limited as it would be unlawful under EU legislation. So why is Khan really there? An election due of course trying to divide the country as usual. Vote Shaun Bailey. Give Khan his P45!

SadiqKhan lol racebater Kahn 🙄

SadiqKhan Just sounds offensive that somehow Londoners should retain their EU citizenship.

SadiqKhan Khan Paid 20k From Tax payers money to ant-pressure group 3m to try to stop Brexit. Here he is again, away from his failing job as Mayor. Sticking his nose into Gov. business, wanting free movement to continue, well we all known why half his Cronies will be banned. ENOUGH OF KAHN

MayorofLondon If you want EU citizenship, move there

MayorofLondon Khan must go forth...

Is this guy on drugs? He’s embarrassing himself

MayorofLondon I see you’re off on another jolly SadiqKhan wasting tax payers money.

I voted remain whilst I was in London, moved out of London due to husband being in the military - we still want our EU citizenship! 🇪🇺❤️

Is he now having mental health problems on top of his other inadequacies?

Get over it we are out 👏👏👏👏👏

MayorofLondon How divisive is this ? SNP gonna love this

Shame on this idiot

He has an entire year to migrate to the European Union before the borders close

MayorofLondon

MayorofLondon

MayorofLondon Sadiq dividing the country even more. That's what moslims do. Jihad

MayorofLondon Just need to call the phone number and apply ...apparently ... that why you set up days to help those who wanted help ...

MayorofLondon London citizens are British citizens. European citizens are citizens of the countries they come from. This mayor does not care about Londoners - only European citizens living in London

MayorofLondon That’s not going happen the Eu won’t do that

MayorofLondon Zzzzz

MayorofLondon Wow you are so brave and a person that takes action...!! Oh gawd

MayorofLondon Brexit denier, I don’t want EU citizenship

MayorofLondon 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Why? London is not a seperatre entity to the rest of the UK

MayorofLondon That is not going to happen, with the Brexit mob having the numbers in parliament,he is just pissing into the wind

MayorofLondon The chances of such an initiative making headway in the negotiations are extremely limited as it would be unlawful under EU legislation.

MayorofLondon Many Londoners are heartbroken you are their mayor but they accept it. Well, most do, the rest make it clear daily

MayorofLondon It already exist.... it’s called a visa

How? Will they need to show a Utility bill or something?

Yes this sounds good to me, don’t care what non Londoners have to say on this.

Sad Khant
