Re: Usefulness of an British Passport
Subsection 44(i) of the Constitution asserts that any person "under any acknowledgement of allegiance, obedience, or adherence to a foreign power, or is a subject or a citizen or entitled to the rights or privileges of a subject or citizen of a foreign power" is not eligible to stand for Parliament.
