“If China follows through with this national security legislation ... we will give those people who hold BNO passports (British National Overseas’ passports) the right to come to the UK,” Raab told the BBC, adding that only “a fraction of them would actually come”.
“We are not going to turn a blind eye, we are not going to look away from our responsbilities to the people of Hong Kong.”
