Basically UK citizens living in the EU can not vote in local elections anymore, as UK left the EU and therefore they „citizen of an EU member state“ requirement is no longer fulfilled.
I am not a lawyer, nor do I know more details, but I would guess it should not change anything for you, as your slovakian citizenship should suffice.
[edit] first version was missing a crucial „Not“
- jeroenhd 4y agoThe limitation on local elections may differ per member state. France doesn't allow voting for local elections without citizenship but other countries do. The only thing that changed is that UK nationals no longer have the status of "citizen" in the EU (unless they have dual citizenship, of course). What that means exactly differs per country. IANAL but I don't think this changes much in practice, or was ever an unexpected outcome, really.
- maverwa 4y agothanks for clearing that up! And indeed, not unexpected at all.
