A group of losing Tibetans seeked external help from Mongols - Manchus (both closely allied militarily with each other) that was ruling over China from the 17th to early 20th century as the Qing Dynasty of China. Thus Tibet became an unwitting protectorate of the Manchu Inner Asian Empire and thereafter the Chinese Communist Party-State. The British Empire too had at one point invaded Tibet from British India. And yes the American 'Empire' too had actively supported/financed/trained (within USA) Tibetan freedom fighters/guerrillas to intrude from Mustang, Nepal into Tibet (under China's control).

Thanks for explaining that British National (Overseas) are not British Nationals.

Why do so many people like BNO passport then?

How is the BN(O) doing now?

I'm British and I'm all up for giving them full citizenship, problem with that is ofcourse everyone would leave hong kong , our border is wayyyyyyy stricter now

How to solve conflict between citizens and government? Immigration

looks like 1 country 2 systems ends in 2020, not 2047

Sadly most activist are young people and won't be able to go to UK for more than 12 months because most of them probably have HK passport not BNO

"not recognising the progress Hong Kong has made as part of China since its colonial days"? What progress? More poverty? Sky rocketing house prices? Housing crisis?

@frankyong2607

The "sky rocketing house prices" and " housing crisis" are due to HK SAR's own government of native Hong Kongers in collusion with Hong Konger real estate land developers in hoarding up huge land bank to jack up prices. This mode of pro-big business HK SAR govt is a continuation of that of the British Hong Kong colonial govt.

Macau people born before December 20, 1999 are Portuguese citizens, so why can't Hong Kong people born before July 1, 1997 be British citizens?

Potentially up to 3 million Hong Kongers may legally be making their way to the UK in the not too distant future according to the latest BOJO pronouncements. Stay tuned....

Yes. Second class! Hahaha! Yet hongkongers still look up at the British as their masters.

they did bring democracy though... I wonder how many hongkongers would prefer to go back to being a British overseas territory where they at least had freedom of speech and democracy.. rather than become part of a dictatorship.

I was born in 1996 and I also have BN(O) and Hong Kong passport.

Better than getting ruled by a dictator

As a HKer, i don't understand why China doesn't allow Britain to take BNO holders and is calling Britain to mind its own business. I have seen the comments here and people from China is extremely supportive of this. So what exactly is wrong? It will honestly be win-win.

BNO holders shold get right of abode in other commonwealth countries such as India,Pakistan and Bangladesh if something actually happens.

Impossible. Those three countries you named have their own immigration laws and have nothing to do with the BN(O).

Hongkongers should learn HISTORY and accept their CHINESE ETHNICS

They can't live or work in UK? So they are just basically a taxpayer to increase revenue?

The information in this video is not really accurate. BNO holders can actually travel to 137 countries without visa and 42 countries with arrival visa, and 6 countries with e-Visa; while HKSAR passport holders can travel 133 countries without visa, 35 with arrival visa and 2 countries with e-Visa. The reason why Hongkongers tend to use HKSAR passport rather than BNO is the fact that the fee for application for and renewal of HKSAR is much cheaper than the fee for renewal of BNO.

Is should call passport of identity illusion.🤣

Vincent Ye tells you how much Britain care about HK people.

why UK didnt give bno passport to egyptians too?

Why people try to stop them from being what they want, why even convince them not to. Just let them go as far as possible from Hong Kong. Hong Kong belongs to people who love this city. Therefore let’s pray that Britain government grant them full passports so the Hong Kong will be quiet again

The one country, two systems model is already dead. Beijing has already encroached on the Sino-British joint declaration so if Beijing isn't honouring it, why should London?

The one country two system has not dead. The deal was signed and the universal suffrage for HK is belong to how China treat. If British believe HK has no right, then they should come with a agreement before the handover. HK protester is not a result of non freedom but of foreign influence.
