This catalogue answers a narrow question: what does Restore Europe hold on this issue? It does not replace the manifesto. The manifesto sets out the worldview; this sets out searchable, topic-by-topic positions.

Where Catholic moral teaching is clear, Restore Europe generally adopts it as the moral baseline, and states civil-law implementation separately. One departure is recorded explicitly: on capital punishment Restore Europe takes the older traditional allowance for exceptional cases rather than the contemporary abolitionist position.

The catalogue distinguishes the constitutional order Restore Europe seeks from European law as it currently stands. Several positions — on nationality, on deprivation of citizenship, on speech, on the public standing of religion and on capital punishment — would require constitutional or treaty change before they could be enacted in particular European states. Where that is so, the entry says it.

Version 0.2 settles the questions version 0.1 had left open: the European institutional relationship, asylum, deportation, wages, taxation, pensions, housing, labour representation, digital identity and currency, biometric surveillance, genetic engineering, sentencing, the energy mix and every standing question of foreign policy. Where a v0.2 formulation revised an earlier entry, the newer text governs.

Every question in this catalogue carries a position. Entries marked Derived follow the direction of the manifesto without their implementation being fixed, and several name the legal or treaty change they would require. Positions are revised as the movement decides; the version and date above say which text you are reading.

III

Nation, Citizenship, Immigration and Europe

Membership of a political community, and the European order between nations.

  • Agreed PolicyNation, Citizenship, Immigration and Europe

    Asylum and International Protection

    Asylum is protection from genuine persecution or serious danger, not a general mechanism for choosing a preferred country of settlement.

  • Agreed PolicyNation, Citizenship, Immigration and Europe

    Asylum, Work and Public Assistance

    Protection should facilitate self-sufficiency rather than permanent welfare dependency.

  • Agreed PolicyNation, Citizenship, Immigration and Europe

    Deportation of Non-Citizen Criminal Offenders

    A non-citizen convicted of a qualifying serious criminal offence should ordinarily lose the right to remain and receive a permanent re-entry ban.

  • Agreed PolicyNation, Citizenship, Immigration and Europe

    Citizenship: General Principle

    Citizenship is membership of a historical political community rather than a function of residence, and Restore Europe rejects automatic territorial birthright citizenship as a general rule.

  • Agreed PolicyNation, Citizenship, Immigration and Europe

    Naturalization

    The normal route requires around fifteen years of lawful residence before an application may be made, with demanding assimilation requirements.

  • Agreed PolicyNation, Citizenship, Immigration and Europe

    Citizenship by Descent and Restoration

    Documented national descent may justify a substantially faster restoration route than ordinary naturalization.

  • Agreed PolicyNation, Citizenship, Immigration and Europe

    Voting Rights After Naturalization

    Naturalized citizens should wait a further four years after naturalization before receiving full voting rights.

  • Agreed PolicyNation, Citizenship, Immigration and Europe

    Eligibility for High Public Office

    The highest offices of the nation are reserved for citizens with a birth, descent and historical connection to the country rather than acquired citizenship alone.

  • Agreed PolicyNation, Citizenship, Immigration and Europe

    Dual Citizenship

    Dual citizenship between European countries is generally accepted; non-European citizens naturalizing into a European nation would be expected to renounce their former citizenship.

  • Agreed PolicyNation, Citizenship, Immigration and Europe

    Revocation of Naturalized Citizenship

    Naturalized citizenship may be revoked judicially in exceptionally serious cases such as fraudulent naturalization, treason or terrorism.

  • Agreed PolicyNation, Citizenship, Immigration and Europe

    European Union: Institutional Relationship

    Restore Europe supports fundamental reform of the European Union into a limited framework for cooperation among sovereign European nations, with most political powers returned to the member states.
