‘No Live Trace’ just means you have a criminal record which is ‘spent’ for the purposes of the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. As this piece of legislation does not apply outside the UK...

Re: British national anthem

‘God Save the King’ is played before international matches in commonality with most other sporting nations and it is not generally booed.

Practically speaking if you hold a British, Australian or US passport then your border experience will be the same as you can enter the UK on any of those passports via an eGate. The only issue will...

Re: PASSPORT APPLICATION UNDER DESCENT (FATHER)

Interesting dilemma. If you’re a British citizen then you don’t require any visa to remain in the UK and any UK visa you hold or apply for is null and void. On the other hand if you’re not a...

Re: Citizenship by decent (through mother).

Unless your grandfather was a diplomat then your mother is already a British citizen by birth - she only needs to apply for a new British passport. In which years were you and your siblings born?
