We're allowing Hong Kong citizens born before 1997 because we have a legal obligation to. Boris isn't being kind here. It's not about the "sins of our fathers", it's about a contract we signed with China in 1997, which is binding until 2047.

Hong Kong folk will come here and find work. I expect it will be a challenge at first, they might have to take fruit picker jobs, and I reckon they will rather than absord welfare, but even if they do need support, in 5 or 10 years, when they have settled and the economy has recovered from covid, I expect the majority to be high achievers. It's in their DNA.
