Remember this for the future:

On Wednesday the foreign secretary Dominic Raab said the UK was prepared to pay the price of a free trade deal with China. “Us extending the UK BNO passport holder offer to come to the UK in the way that I have described is not contingent on a free trade deal or anything like that.”

“We wouldn’t allow that to get in the way of us living up to our responsibilities as a matter of principle both for moral reasons and international standing.”

Which leads to this: Ministers plot to allow chlorinated chicken and other poor-quality US imports in to UK supermarkets | Daily Mail Online

Of course. Then after they've bought them I will support a deportation order.

Again, you've grown soft. That will be a mercy after buying in Swindon.

[DimPrawn]

You've really grown as a person over the years. Now you care about whether they like buying them.

They can buy my BTL portfolio, and then I can finally retire a rich man!

I love the idea of millions of immigrants, as long as they like buying crapholes in Swindon at inflated prices.

Idiotic! Those from HK would probably be useful people in general, given that success of migrants tends to reflects that of the country they come from. But, seriously, how could we cope with another 3 million given the current pressures on housing, transport, utilities, our environment, green spaces etc.

If PRC is triggered by the UK offering British nationals in Hong Kong a path to citizenship, they could always retaliate by offering British citizens a path to PRC citizenship.

Chinese passport got that extra non-extradiction value, their tax system probably has not caught up with “loans” too

Hong Kongers will vote Conservative.

1) They will be grateful.
2) They are natural pro-capitalism/free-market/small-state types.

He's doing what the left has been doing for years as they import benefit claimants.

Neither position is honourable but this is what they are doing - neither to our benefit.

Apart from the fact that the only people who can get this offer are older people, those born before Hong Kong was given back. This means a lot of older people coming over to put more strain on the UK's already over burdened health and care sector. Boris really hasn't thought this one out, along with interfering in a sovereign nation...

Sovereignty comes from the people, not from a bunch of tyrannical thugs running a one party state. The only Chinese leader with democratic legitimacy is President Tsai Ing-wen of the Republic of China.

yup absolutely the type of hardworking people this country needs

They are going to clean your old bedsit?

You can't prove I have any connection with AtW's corporate landlord Oude Joris Holdings (Aruba) Inc.

I'll move back to the English West Midlands when the miasma of stale kebab meet with squirrel jizz sauce disperses.
