- With about 200,000 such passports issued in the first 10 months of the year, they're being issued at a rate of about five a minute, the report said.
In October, about 60,000 such passports were issued, a more than 50% jump from the same month a year earlier, according to Bloomberg. The UK has issued more passports to Hong Kong residents than any year since 1997, when it handed the country back to China.

At a briefing on Friday, Hua Chunying, a spokesperson for China's Foreign Ministry, said her country has "made clear its position on the BN(O) passport issue." She accused the UK of interfering with political affairs in China and Hong Kong.
