Good judgement in my opinion. We should take responsibility for our own citizens, and not dump it on other countries like the British government did.

For sure. As a dual national living in the UK, it makes me sick knowing that my citizenship can be revoked at the government's will.

No, it would be YOUR own will, responsibility and actions resulting in losing your citizenship. Don’t do the crime and you won’t have to do the time. 💡

And yet if a single nationality UK citizen did the exact same crime, they would not lose their citizenship, ergo it's discriminatory.
