Should immigrants to the United Kingdom be allowed to hold dual citizenship status?
Dual citizenship (also known as dual nationality) is allowed in the UK. This means you can be a British citizen and also a citizen of other countries. You do not need to apply for dual citizenship. You can apply for foreign citizenship and keep your British citizenship.

Immigrants should be offered the choice, British citizenship or return to their country of origin; if they are here permenantly why do they need dual citizenship?
@9FCNR2J1yr1Y
Yes, but only if they’re from EU or Commonwealth countries.
@8RMY2Y24yrs4Y
Yes but only from the European Union, the Commonwealth, and other allied nations
@8RS8QMW4yrs4Y
Yes, but only to nations within the commonwealth
@8PXTKW94yrs4Y
No, Dual citizenship is greedy. You are either in or out.
@8PPHWP84yrs4Y
Yes, but only if the other country is an Ally or a member of the European Union.
@9PV5RNC5mos5MO
No, they either have to work 5 years for British citizenship and have all ties to former country removed. Only children of two parents of different nationalities should have duel citizenship and the parents once child is born.
@9PV47KZ5mos5MO
Yes, unless they have committed an act or terrorism or a serious crime, and only after 5 years of living in the country
