Farage wanting EU citizenship?

[JohnD]

In August 2016, UKIP spokesman (but not Farage himself) denied that he had applied for German citizenship (he has an immigrant wife) just after the referendum.

Remember that.

German law normally requires 8 years residency – with only minimal absences – in order to qualify for a passport. For those with a German spouse – Mr Farage’s wife is German – the length of residency is reduced to 3 years’ continual residency.
