Wasn’t the offer PM Johnson made to HKer’s without any wealth/asset caveats?

The Home Office never does anything without wealth caveats and significant fees.

It seems to be a moot point now - China simply refused to recognize a BNO passport as a legal document so you can't leave.

Most BNO holders also hold either a HK passport or HKID, making it possible to leave in either way. China (and HK) not recognizing the BNO passport doesn't really change much for most people. I do believe there was a story here lately about some people only holding a BNO passport, not sure how that would work out for them.
