Speech content at the formal meeting of the UNs CCPR
於聯合國公民及政治權利委員會會議的發言節錄
“…Since the 1980s, the UK government has stripped Hongkongers, namely #BDTCs , of their rights of abode in the mainland UK and created a new class of nationals, called BN(O), with the exact aim of depriving Hongkongers of their freedom of movement and residence when the city was still part of the UK. BDTCs in Hong Kong who did not register as BN(O)s have lost their British Nationality after China took over the city.
Our affiliate members are precisely affected by this. As a BDTC-HK / BN(O), they had no way to resettle in the UK but to claim asylum at the UK border when they fled from persecution by the Hong Kong authorities. It is beyond absurdity that a British National has to claim asylum in their own country.
It is also noted that the recent visa offer to BDTC-HK / BN(O) holders is not comparable to the resettlement pathway offered to other BDTCs, such as Gibraltarians…”

⋯自20世紀80年代以來，英國政府剝奪了 #英屬港人 在英國本土的 #居留權 ，並建立了一個新的國籍類別：BN（O），目的是剝奪香港人在英屬香港時期港人前往英國居住的自由。此外，中國接管香港後，沒有申領BN（O）的香港BDTC及其後代失去了英國國籍。
我們的成員也受此影響。 作為BN（O）或BDTC的後代，當他們逃離香港當局的迫害時，他們無從安頓下來，只能在英國邊境 #聲請庇護 。 英國（海外）國民 只能選擇在自己的國家聲請庇護，實在是荒謬無理。
還值得注意的是，2021年起向BN（O）持有人提供的簽證計劃 與 向直布羅陀人等其他BDTC（BOTC）提供的居留申請途徑截然不同。（前者只是一個提供給BN（O）持有人的暫居安置計劃 政策；後者則把有關定居安排納入法例，成為BOTC護照持有人的特定權利。）

Forwarded from The Hong Kong Scots
1989年的《鏗鏘集》，深入淺出講述英國人如何有計劃地剝奪港人英籍身份及 #居英權。當年，中共血腥振壓天安門，港人上街要求恢復英國英國公民身份。最後，英國政府只以「英國國籍甄選計劃」，讓當時50,000名港人及其家眷批出居英權。
踏入花甲之年的香港人，都會記得這段歷史。這個亦都是為何我們致力爭取要求英國政府平等對待英屬港人，以安置計劃(Resettlement Plan) 而非簽證計劃(Visa Scheme)安頓本來是英國臣民的我們。

感謝Human Rights Consortium Scotland（蘇格蘭人權陣綫）Participation Officer - Doro今早同我哋互相分享工作及倡議，並支持我等在地港人社群持續扎根。
我哋希望推動同見證蘇格蘭多元文化實踐，捍衛我們應有的權利。特別係作為新移民我哋面對嘅各種挑戰同差距，例如 支援群體內的弱勢人士； BNO簽證持有人受到的職業限制，包括No Sportperson；中國的威脅及滲透下，英國未能有效保護港人，包括未有給予BNO簽證附屬申請人合適的 #旅遊證件 等等。
喺嚟緊嘅日子，蘇格蘭香港人 Scottish Hongkongers會繼續同HRCS 加強各少數族裔群體與 #人權議題 之間嘅聯繫，促進社會更有效地運用資源，讓公共機構實施更友善的政策和提供合適的服務。
We are privileged to have an exchange with Doro, the Participation Officer at Human Rights Consortium Scotland earlier today. She imparted valuable insights into our work and advocacy efforts and reiterated support for the local Hong Kong community.
As an organisation, we strive to promote multiculturalism while advocating for human rights in Scotland. This comes with its own set of challenges and disparities, including supporting vulnerable people, addressing the restrictions faced by BNO visa holders, such as the exclusion of sportspeople and dealing with threats and infiltration from China. Unfortunately, the UK has failed to provide adequate protection to Hong Kongers, including appropriate travel documents for BNO VISA dependents.
We remain committed to strengthening connections between various ethnic minority groups and human rights matters with HRC Scotland. We aim to foster more effective resource utilization within society and advocate for friendlier policies and suitable services from public institutions.
