Seems like a pretty big number, if true. Given how right-wing Hong Kong is on economic issues, this could cement Tory dominance for a while when these people become eligible for citizenship, with near vote majorities becoming a possibility, up from the recent ~44% number. Laborites, who are open borders types for electoral and ideological reasons, will probably be unhappy if this goes through. Still, it's unclear if the rank and file Tory voter will be happy about this sudden influx of culturally and physically alien foreigners.

It’ll be great if they start deporting the Saracens
To: Zhang Fei
We should deport all our Chicoms, including students and anchor babies (birth tourism), and consider merit-based import of HK people.

You mean Vankong. That's what the locals call it.
What separates China and India? The Frazer river.

Wasn’t Hong Kong a British colony anyway? Then they should offer up a path.

Yes, no more importation of non-Europeans into European nations. No more. Our altruism is being played upon. We must stop falling for it. With each round of importation, OUR culture gets diluted.

I think we’ll have our hands full with Taiwan.
To: UnwashedPeasant; All
Yup. Get rid of the sneaky bastards who steal our R&D, and give it to the Chinese Communist bastards who are determined to take over our country.

Get in on what? More immigrants? We have 40,000,000 too many as it is. If your house were on fire, would you pour gasoline on it?

I’m more keeping it as a US territory like PR. But we have to pick between Taiwan and HK. Our military has at least a thousand war strategies in defending Taiwan.

I would trade muslims and people from 3rd world nations any and every day.
They’re industrious, smart, and hard workers. They’re a net plus instead of a negative to any society.
