The UK is both highly diverse and very open-minded -- especially when compared to more closed attitudes across Continental Europe. Of course there's a lot of propaganda about Hong Kong newcomers being unwelcome, much of it propagated by CCP websites and bots on KZbin. But the truth is that they've largely been very welcome in local British communities and have integrated smoothly into what is already one of the most diverse societies anywhere. Here in London, the growing Hong Kong communities in Kingston-on-Thames, Canary Wharf, Whitechapel, and Woolwich (to name a few) are absolutely thriving. There's loads of community events as well as cultural-exchange meetings with other local groups. >>The only real issue in recent months has been occasional verbal clashes with mainland Chinese students etc. (see the recent incident where CCP slogans were painted on a wall in Shoreditch), as mainlanders already exist in the UK in huge numbers (estimated at over half a million, possibly up to 650,000).

The changes in Hong Kong might have come too sudden and too much for some to bear. The reality is most Southeast Asian countries have strict national security laws (detention without trial in some serious cases) and there is no short of public surveillance compared with Hong Kong or even China (in some cities and areas). Granted that Hong Kong's national security laws may have resulted in loss of personal privacy and freedom of expression to some degree, but this is surely not a huge concern for the law-abiding majority, the average folks just need a safe and conducive environment where they and their families can freely walk in the streets, parks with their children at night. For the hyper-energized youths with lofty political aspirations, they should have kept their cool, properly sworn in (despite having to swallow the "bitter pill" from their perspective) to hold on to their parliamentary seats they have won through local elections, and to channeled their energy to work through the political system to shape, reshape the education syllabuses and system (which is a much more worthy cause than no-limits freedom of speech and universal suffrage); in some ways, these youths who have "escaped" overseas have betrayed the trusts of their voters and did nothing to improve Hong Kong's situation speak volumes of their maturity and their sense of responsibility (or lack thereof). I hope the average Hongkongers (my friends included) would deeply reflect on the irresponsible youth violence that have thankfully come to pass, keeping their eyes peeled and making the right choices for themselves. Peace to all.

Many of my UK friends also left & returned to the UK. It's been a quite the mental & emotional battle to decide to stay or go back to the UK even for me as a British person as it feels quite an alien lifestyle for me in the UK now tbh. I'm so impressed by how resilient & brave HKers are! It's never easy leaving a home & life u love to go out into the unknown.
