The UK has a strong historic relationship with the people of Hong Kong & we are keeping our promise to them.
BNO citizens now have the choice to come & live, work & study in the UK - enabling them to build a new life for them & their family.

The United Kingdom is speaking with one voice in support of Hong Kong today. We cannot abandon Hongkongers who are struggling for their freedom, many of whom did not have the chance to take a BNO passport during the Handover. Now is the time to live up to our values.
📰 NEWS: Following China's imposition of a national security law on Hong Kong, the UK has confirmed that new arrangements will be put in place for British Nationals (Overseas).
We’re glad to hear that @GOVUK confirmed that BN(O) will be extended residency in the UK, as suggested before. #BNOisBritish, but we’re also #hongkongers, which our fight hasn’t ended; it’s just the beginning.
Thank you @GOVUK to #StandWithHongKong.
Ex-#HongKong British consulate staffer Simon Cheng - who has been living in exile - has told reporters that the UK Home Office granted him asylum on June 26.
He said the timing showed that London was losing confidence in One Country, Two Systems. #china#uk

Tomorrow there will be one government oral statement in the @HouseofCommons from @DominicRaab with an update on the Hong Kong National Security Legislation, and UK response
Today, the United States is ending exports of @StateDeptPM controlled U.S. origin defense equipment and sensitive @CommerceGov controlled dual-use technologies to Hong Kong. If Beijing now treats Hong Kong as “One Country, One System,” so must we.
Home Sec. @pritipatel has asked that the UK grant #HongKong BN(O) passport holders "leave to enter the UK outside of the Immigration Rules" until a pathway to citizenship is enacted.
The UK has a moral & legal duty to the people of Hong Kong.
Our Bill would give BNO status holders the right to live in Britain permanently & would open the scheme to those born after 1997.

Yesterday I spoke to @DailyMailUK about the Labour Party, racism, how a small minority have now subverted the cause of the protests and our moral commitment and responsibility as a country to the people of Hong Kong.

Today I am thinking of the men who landed on the beaches of Normandy 76 years ago, who fought and died so that we can be free from the evils of fascism.
We will always be grateful for their courage, and we will always remember their sacrifice.

76 Years ago today, at 0725, British troops began landing on Gold and Sword Beaches.
Last year, this moment was poignantly marked by a lone piper in Normandy.
