"Mrs Wong said she wanted her children to be able to say what they wanted at school, not like in Hong Kong, where they had to be careful. "That's not the life we want them to have," she said."

They might be in for a surprise.

They have to finance themselves which is good, rather than take someone else's house. I believe we owe it to them having given HK back to China (as we had to).

<cough> immigration down to the tens of thousands <cough>

Have they seen this week’s/year’s UK weather forecast? I think I’d opt for an oppressive communist regime encroaching on my civil liberties at every turn over this grey, sodden crap hole, especially if they get relocated to Stoke, Huddersfield or Barnsley.

"fiercely loyal to the crown"

They might want to change that in order to integrate with the majority of the nation.

I wouldn't - regular typhoons, and a long summer of horribly oppressive heat, humidity and torrential downpours, all to an accompaniment of near-toxic smog. HK weather is awful

I think a drop of English rain will be nothing to them having experienced typhoons in Hong Kong.

Come on now, Horsted Keynes isn't quite that bad!

Our fish and chip shops will breath a sigh of relief.

These are happy stories. Although I'm sure they'd still rather be in their homeland. Good folk them.

I find the 'fiercely loyal to the Crown' quote from [MENTION=35289]Baker lite[/MENTION] rather amusing. I thought they were fleeing authoritarian ideology.

 

[Pint of Ale and a Burger]

Yes great news.
I was disappointed we didn't go to their aid when this all started but letting as many as possible in over here is the least we can do.
A welcome tech skills , entrepreneureal and financial boost to this country just at the right time.
