(1) Welcome to the WTF Hong Kong Protest Series - "I've been duped & now I'm back in HK after moving to the UK" Special Edition #RaamWTF

This ex-McBNO boner lamented that he & some of his friends have returned to HK after moving to the UK, as they had not done enough financial

(2) planning before the move- a fellow McBNO boner echoed his views, saying that he'd been duped by a Facebook influencer named Coco, & who attracted people to watch his videos with tons of catchy headlines as click baits, but his views about moving to the UK are "not fact-based"

(3) he urges others not to watch his videos & says that he's much happier to be back to HK as there's much more freedom in HK - one can make use of one's strengths

(4) Another fellow BNO boner says s/he has moved to the UK with children after selling a HK property for several million HK dollars, but the oldest son hasn't managed to get a driving license - whole family won't dare to spend money, trying to save for basic living costs &

(6) anguish - another boner comments that many HK McBNO migrants have no life skills, with no driving license - he himself used to do admin work in HK - he finds that "Brits don't use proper grammar" when they communicate anyway

(7) Another boner laments that she knows of a friend from HK who's married with 2 kids with parents paying off her HK property so that they could bring HK$ 5 million to move to the UK - thinking that would be safe but her husband injured his shoulder working in a warehouse, cos

(8) had never engaged in any manual work before.... so tough for him to earn a living doing hard labour now......

(9) Oh no! Someone claims on the Facebook group for McBNO boners to exchange info on living in the UK that ALL of his friends have returned to Hong Kong & urges others not to move to the UK cos they will most likely end up returning to HK
