Having waited for the EU to decide what the British expats position would be Sajit Javid made the offer some weeks ago. The only condition so far as I understand is you must not be a criminal. Anyway here is the link to the report. Anyway since we're still waiting, perhaps someone will be kind enough to tell us what the EU propose.

Hi
Too true I have rubbished it.
It is crap.
Many EU Citizens do not have Passports, they simply have ID Cards, all they needed.
My Prentendies where born here. Jacob was 10 yesterday, Nadi is 9 soon.
They have British Birth Certificates, not Polish ones.
They were born in the UK, Mum is now being asked to prove she was in the UK when they were born.
Both Mum and Dad have been in the UK for years, they pay Tax and NI, always have done.
Who the hell keeps 10 year old Payslips or Bank Statements?
I don't.
Neither do I keep records of my trips in and out of the UK from 10 years ago.
The UK has access to all EU Criminal databases, they simply should not be here.
I cannot cross the Channel without my Criminal Record being scanned.
I cannot fly to Poland or Italy without the same happening, for example.
The UK chooses not to bother with this and just as importantly, chooses not to upload Criminal Convictions here to the EU Databases.
Hence the fact that the Mastermind behind the Paris Terrorist attack could enter and leave the UK without any checks.
You are entitled to your views, I am entitled to mine.
Mine are based on years working for Enforcement Agencies,being given a right kicking by Radical Muslims here in the UK and having my house attacked by them.
Just what is your experience and detailed knowledge of the situation?
The UK has agreed a deal with the EU about Citizens Rights.
Very simple and of benefit to both.
It is quite simply the UK who are making it difficult, not the EU.
It should be a non starter, so so simple to implement.
If the kids were born here, and have been here since birth, just what is the problem?
