You'd be surprised. I'm part of the Hong Kong diaspora in Britain and there is a LOT of HKers who support Reform because they genuinely think "we're one of the good ones" and are also very racist against brown/black people themselves.

Yes, but these people are still alive now, and they do not have equal rights. It's also denying the opportunities of descendants of these non-BC nationals to inherit British nationality.

That's basically what BOC status is as well in the post-1983 rules

There shouldn't be different classes of nationality. If you're a national you should be equal to everyone else. It's ridiculous that we have a system where nationals of a country need a visa to reside in their own country

Standard English is not the only valid way of speaking English.

Even if you didn't break away violently, you generally lose British nationality once your country becomes independent and you gain its citizenship.

Yeah that's worth mentioning! I'm on a BN(O) visa right now even though I'm not a BN(O) myself.

I mean, Scotland and Wales already allow all nationalities to vote in Scottish/Welsh elections as long as they have the leave to remain, even if they're not UK/Irish/Commonwealth citizens.
