It will be a huge culture shock for the Honk Kong people that take the UK up on this offer. They will be shocked at the Socialism that dominates the UK. Shocked at the piss poor Gov’t run healthcare system. Shocked at the large muslim presence in Londonistan with its No Go Zones.
Shocked at the old and decrepit state of housing most in the UK live in.
I’ve been to both places. I would much prefer Hong Kong. The HK prior to the recent CCP take over that is.

Post takeover, and the withdrawal of British-era (carried on past accession to China on condition of one country, two systems) preferences vis-a-vis trade and finance links granted by the West, I expect Hong Kong would become a second-tier Chinese city - more like a downscale Wuhan, with salaries plunging by 3/4 or more from their present levels. Real estate would crash by even more, given leverage and the fact that HK rents are 10x Wuhan’s.
