Australian Dual Citizens Entering UK after February

Those certificates of entitlement are 5x the cost of passports. What is their rationale for that?
They want you to get a passport. Passports are a right (of sorts) and issued on a not-for-profit basis.

Other visa and immigration services are ‘for profit’. The certificate of entitlement isn't at the high end compared to some of the other services.

Mother born in Ireland? Likely the child is Irish, automatically.

Will it be a problem? Who knows.

The child could have been born to a different mother (previous relationship).

Will it be a problem? Who knows.

The child could have been born to a different mother (previous relationship).
But it's inconsistent. Or full of holes? As in the case of my father, both of his parents born in UK. He is not registered in official sources as a British citizen.

Yes, IF they pickup on it prior to boarding, that is the question no-one officially answers.

It seems once you get to the border they would be OK.
