Can the EU even do something about it? I mean I know there is supposed visa reciprocity in EU rules, and the deals should cover ALL countries, but I'm not sure this goes as far as fees, and also even when it comes to just visas, the EU can't do much, like people from Romania, Bulgaria and Croatia still need US visas...

欧盟能对此做点什么吗？我的意思是，我知道在欧盟规则中应该有签证互惠，协议应该涵盖所有国家，但我不确定这是否涉及到手续费用，甚至只是在签证方面，欧盟也无能为力，就像来自罗马尼亚、保加利亚和克罗地亚的人仍然需要办理美国签证一样……

I know the Germans have the same problem. But they allow dual citizenship if it means hardship. Just state your case I the Dutch embassy and ask if it's possible to get an exception in some way.

It's hard but I don't think it's impossible. Especially in the current political clima.

我知道德国人也有同样的问题。但是他们允许双重国籍，如果这意味着困难的话。你只需向荷兰大使馆说明你的情况，然后询问是否有可能在某种程度上得到例外对待。

这很难，但我不认为这是不可能的。尤其是在当前的政治环境下。

What are you on about? This has nothing to do with refugees. Moroccan citizens in the Netherlands aren’t refugees, their parents or grand parents were invited as guest labourers after the second world war to rebuild the country. Again, NOTHING to do with refugees.

Also has nothing to do with Western Europe. Moroccan citizens everywhere in the world can’t give up their Moroccan passports. A Moroccan citizen with dual nationality in the US or in Australia or wherever also is forced to keep their Moroccan citizenship.

你在扯什么？这和难民一点关系都没有。在荷兰的摩洛哥公民并不是难民，他们的父母或祖父母在二战后受邀为重建国家而来。再说一遍，这与难民无关。

也与西欧无关。世界各地的摩洛哥公民都不能放弃摩洛哥护照。在美国、澳大利亚或其他地方拥有双重国籍的摩洛哥公民也被迫保留其摩洛哥国籍。

Do they actually strip your citizenship or just not recognise dual nationality?

他们真的剥夺了你的公民身份还是不承认你的双重国籍？

If you married a UK citizen that is the child of an Irish person, you could get the UK passport and your children could get an EU passport. Bit of a complex I guess...

如果你与爱尔兰人的孩子的英国公民结婚，你可以获得英国护照，你的孩子可以获得欧盟护照。我猜有点复杂……

doesn’t allow dual citizenship

And it's good that way. Dual citizenship is just antidemocratic.

“不允许双重国籍”

这样很好。双重国籍是反民主的。

Why do you think it’s anti-democratic?

你为什么认为这是反民主的？

I guess people can vote in two places. Say Poland has problems with old Polish immigration from the 70s and 80s voting, usually far right and ultra catholic and they still vote, despite not being in Poland for decades and thinking it still looks like in the communist days. Someone who hasn't been living in a country for so many years deciding it's fate has little to do with democracy. Not sure this was his/her point, but it pisses me off.

我想人们可以在两个地方投票。比如，波兰在70年代和80年代的老波兰移民投票方面存在问题，这些移民通常是极右翼和极端天主教，他们仍然在投票，尽管他们已经不在波兰几十年了，认为波兰仍然像XX主义时期一样。一个多年来没有在一个国家生活过的人，却能决定这个国家的命运，这根本不是民主。我不确定这是不是他/她的意思，但这让我很生气。

I mean there are tons of countries that have large diasporas (Ireland and Israel are the first two that come to mind) that require anyone who wants to vote in national elections to actually be in the country to vote. This sort of removes that problem, since most people wouldn’t take the effort of flying all the way back home just to vote, especially if they have been living abroad for decades.

我的意思是，有很多有大量移民的国家（爱尔兰和以色列是最先想到的两个）要求任何想在全国选举中投票的人都必须在本国投票。这在一定程度上解决了这个问题，因为大多数人不会为了投票而长途飞行回家，尤其是如果他们已经在国外生活了几十年的话。

The EU also has different visa requirements for countries who are not members of the EU differing based on the applicants country of origin...I fail to see the difference.

欧盟对非欧盟成员国也有不同的签证要求，这取决于申请人的原籍国。我看不出这和英国的行为有什么区别。

But why those countries get different treatment?

但是为什么这些国家会得到区别对待呢？

Former_Singer 

I don't know, probably for the same reason that we give preference to some non EU countries over others. Maybe there is more demand from these countries and they're trying to manage that? I'm not a politician so you would really have to ask someone from the UK government.

If the EU wanted to do something about this then they could subsidise the payments.

我不知道，可能是出于同样的原因，我们优先考虑一些非欧盟国家。也许是我们对这些国家有更多的需求，并且他们也正在提供这些资源？我不是政客，所以你真的得问问英国政府的人。

如果欧盟想对此做点什么，他们可以补贴这笔（申请差额）款项。

Except there's no way to distinguish between people from England, Scotland, Wales, NI because they are all citizens of the UK. There's no such thing as a "Welsh citizen" or "Scottish citizen".

除了根本没有办法区分英格兰人、苏格兰人、威尔士人，因为他们都是英国公民。没有所谓的“威尔士公民”或“苏格兰公民”。

Former_Singer 

I don't think that we have anything to gain from victimising the UK as it is becoming increasingly difficult to argue that the EU is acting in good faith. The easiest way to resolve this would be for the EC to pay the €55 on behalf of those states.

I could be wrong but I think within the UK people offer distinctions between English/Scottish/Welsh and Northern Irish, internationally these classifications do not exist and instead it's British.

我认为，让英国付出牺牲对我们没有任何好处，因为现在越来越难以证明欧盟是在真诚行事了。解决这一问题最简单的方法是由欧盟代为这些国家支付那55欧元的差价。

我可能错了，但我认为在英国，人们会区分英格兰人/苏格兰人/威尔士人和北爱尔兰人，而在国际上这些分类并不存在，都是英国人。

I dont think europeans should do those jobs anyway. They treat them like cattle, its degrading. Let the British do them.

我不认为欧洲人应该干这些工作。他们像对待牲口一样对待他们，这是可耻的。让英国人自己干去吧。

So this is what we get for supporting UK. First chance they get to stab us in the back.

Best part is they don't even bother to give any real explanation, just a middle finger.

这就是我们支持英国所得到的。他们一有机会就从背后捅我们一刀。

最棒的是他们甚至懒得给出任何真正的解释，只是竖起中指。

Morozow 

Therefore I say that it is a narrow policy to suppose that this country or that is to be marked out as the eternal ally or the perpetual enemy of England. We have no eternal allies, and we have no perpetual enemies. Our interests are eternal and perpetual, and those interests it is our duty to follow.

因此，我认为把这个或那个国家当作英国的永久盟友或永久敌人是一种狭隘的政策。我们没有永远的盟友，也没有永远的敌人。我们的利益是永恒的，是永恒的，我们有责任去追求这些利益。

Because the salaries are some of the highest in the world. But so is the cost of living so.....

因为那里的工资是世界上最高的。但是生活费用也是……

Depends very much on where you live. London, obviously, plus Edinburgh, Oxford, Cambridge, Bath, Bristol. Otherwise I'd say it's pretty comparable with most of western Europe. Food and drink is cheap (unless you shop at Waitrose of course).

这在很大程度上取决于你住在哪里。当然还有伦敦，爱丁堡，牛津，剑桥，巴斯，布里斯托尔。否则我得说，它与大多数西欧国家相当。食物和饮料很便宜（当然，除非你在维特罗斯超市购物）。

But why discriminate?

但是为什么要搞歧视呢？

scient0logy

These policies are not really discrimination, after all, a country doesn't have the same geopolitical agreements with every other country. They make some special agreements with some, and not for others. It really depends on the interests of the nation. There are countries now that limit Chinese investment because they don't want to end up like certain African nations. Every country already decides which country requires a visa and which doesn't, this is nothing new.

这些政策并不是真正的歧视，毕竟，一个国家与其他国家的地缘政治协议并不相同。他们和一些国家签订了特殊的协议，而不是为另一些国家。这真的取决于国家的利益。现在有些国家限制某东方大国的投资，因为他们不想落得和某些非洲国家一样的下场。每个国家都已经决定哪些国家需要签证，哪些不需要，这不是什么新鲜事。

The poorest ones. This is purely a racist deterrent for those dirty Eastern Europeans.

针对最穷的国家。这纯粹是对那些肮脏的东欧人的种族主义威慑。
