Signed but less than 18000 so far i would say this one needs to hit a million to have any effect as i'm sure cameron will be desperately keen to retain any advantages

If someone lives here legitimately and they work here and pay taxes here, they should be able to vote here as well.
Are you saying that all migrants, regardless of how long they have been here should not be able to vote?

Not all! I am all for the ones who have settled here and are not sending shed loads of money back home. If this place is a stop gap for them, with them having the intention to return home as soon as a pot of money has been made ( like - now time).....then NO....I do not think that it is right that my future and the future of my family should be dictated by someone in another country.

I have known numerous families of people who are not native to the UK for most of my life who have very successful businesses and employ people native to the UK but still send monies which is their right to members of their families still in their homeland.

Do you propose that these people cannot vote,I think it is their right to have the vote the same as me and YOU.

The vote should be for British people only. Of course you wouldn't want that would you because it will be a landslide vote to leave the EU.
