@pschwede Fair and i understand why, Personally I want them to have independence. I hope to see full unending riots just so china looses and maybe tibet will be next!
But in terms of giving them UK citizenship... their numbers are HUGE. Could you imagine what it would do to a country to have an increase in population of 7.3 million overnight. I think thats close to a 20% population increase.
Plus as i said there is no way to identify a rioter from a non-rioter without putting their life at risk in HK. As such it would have to extend to the whole population of HK.
