British expats seeking German citizenship

"According to an investigation by the Local, there has been a more than fivefold rise in applications made in major metropolitan areas.

...
It is estimated that 100,000 Britons live in Germany.

In Hamburg, for example, 280 applications were made last year - compared with 52 in 2015. More than 200 were submitted after the Brexit vote."

The future of British and EU expats is still on the negotiating table

On the eve of the Brexit negotiations, UK Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson, writes in the Sunday Times that the government will deliver not a hard or soft, but an 'open' Brexit. That, he says,  includes looking after Europeans working in the UK, on condition that  there is a reciprocal agreement  from the EU about UK nationals. " We are going to deliver not a soft Brexit or a hard Brexit — but an open Brexit, one that ensures that the UK is still turned outwards, and more engaged with the world than ever before. That means properly looking after the interests of the 3.2m EU citizens who live and work here — always assuming there are reciprocal protections for the 1m UK nationals in the rest of the EU. And we will go further, and make clear to UK business that this country will remain open to ambition from the EU and around the world. ... You can take back control of borders without slamming the drawbridge on talent."
