The British government has announced a $77million fund to help Hong Kong migrants fleeing political repression settle in the country.
The UK has offered special visas to holders of British National passports that opens paths for five million of Hong Kong’s seven point four million people to work, reside, and eventually become a citizen in Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
China says the move is an abuse of the passports and that it will no longer recognise them as a form of identification.
