UK's May: EU citizens living in UK must apply for special ID card after Brexit - The Guardian

Speaking in the parliament, British Prime Minister Theresa May shared the details of the government’s proposals on EU citizens after the UK leaves the bloc.

Key quotes (via The Guardian):

• All 3 million EU citizens resident in Britain will have to apply for a “settled status” identity card after Brexit under Home Office proposals on their future rights
• EU nationals who have applied for permanent residence status documents since the referendum – thought to number more than 150,000 – will be asked to apply again albeit in a streamlined process
• After Brexit they will lose their right to bring in a spouse to live in Britain without meeting an £18,600 minimum income threshold and possibly their future voting rights in British local elections
• The UK offer includes guarantees on UK pensions including on uprating and aggregated rights paid out abroad and the ability of settled EU nationals to continue to have social security benefits
