Conferring a domestic UK immigration status on EU citizens does not deal with acquired rights on pensions, it does not carry a guarantee of equal treatment, it carries virtually no protection against deportation where even minor crimes are committed (or no crime at all in some cases) and it would subject family members to the UK’s harsh family immigration rules (officially the least family friendly of 38 developed countries according to the Migrant Integration Policy Index).
