BBC World News - Britain's New Hongkongers

Thousands of Hongkongers have fled to the UK for a new life, but is it all they hoped for?

Thousands of people from Hong Kong have left their homes behind for a new life in Britain. Elaine Chong follows the journey of some, to find out if it's all they hoped for.

Thousands of people from Hong Kong have left everything they know behind to start a new life in the UK since last year. From Warrington to Reading, over a hundred thousand took up the British government's offer of a new visa route escaping a government accused of eroding their freedoms and liberties. As they navigate their new life in the UK, Elaine Chong follows the journey of some of them to find out if it's all they hoped for, and finds a community that's trying to restart their life but experiencing many of the same tensions they left behind.
