Well at the moment everyone in the EU has EU citizenship and residency in an EU country but when the UK leaves then it is unclear what happens to UK citizens resident in a different EU country from the UK and for EU citizens resident in the UK. One of the laws brought in by the EU was dual citizenship but after Brexit, this will change, more than likely. What will probably happen is that those with dual citizenship will either have to revoke their UK citizenship if they are a UK citizen in another EU country or their original citizenship if living in the UK.

lets hope we don't get some of our expats back!

Being pedantic no citizen of an EU state is classed as an EU citizen until they 'excercise a treaty right' by living working or studying in an EU state other then there own.

EU citizenship has always been allowed according to each states nationality laws, some states like Germany don't allow it but do if the other nationality is an EU one. That will cause issues on Brexit for Brits living in Germany. And Holland, they are the same.

I think you are incorrect.

The tiny nation of Malta recently came under fire when it announced plans to allow wealthy foreigners to obtain a passport for a 650,000 euro investment with no residency requirement, which would have made it the cheapest European Union (EU) nation in which to purchase citizenship.

Where is the cheapest place to buy citizenship? - BBC News

It appears to be a valid route for wealthy Brexiteers who want the ability to live and work inside the Fourth Reich.

A New Zealand-born backer of a think tank advocating a hard Brexit has obtained an EU passport through Malta, it has been reported.

Christopher Chandler, founder of Legatum, which backs leaving the single market and the customs union, has become a citizen of the Mediterranean island.

Cypriot citizenship can be bought as well.
