"Everyone is desperate to become British before it is too late" says Jonathan Hendry

Applying for British citizenship never crossed my mind even though I have been living in London for ages. I am both an EU citizen (Denmark) and a non-EU citizen (Norway).

I hope that even if the UK decided to leave the EU, our neighbours would not annex our garden overnight, spray paint "Scandis go home!" on our house and then nationalise the property altogether to turn it into a memorial of suffering endured by Londoners under the EU's free movement of labour.

Anyway, we are prepared to flee to the closest Ikea for temporary shelter in case violence and pogroms break out in Chelsea after the vote.

BBC is asking Should EU citizens consider becoming British?

I am really looking forward to the time when passports, citizenship, movement restrictions and immigration controls will become funny things of the past.

Absolutely!
I think we should be lumpers, as in HUMANS, rather than splitters as in all these races, nations etc. DNA tells us we are largely all the same.
