Australian Dual Citizens Entering UK after February

So it has been a couple of days and others may not be willing to take the same risk as I did, but will post my experience post the recent rule changes. Reading the UK web sites I am a British Citizen based on the heredity rules. This was my experience:
  • Travelled to the UK on 26/2, the ETA was issued prior to rule enforcement .
  • OLCI just worked and I had saved the BPs to my phone.
  • I showed up at the airport to have my PP scanned, the only question I was asked, do you have a British PP. I answered ‘No’ as this is correct, never had one, or needed to apply for one.
  • Paper BP issued.
  • Arrived in DXB and no issue with onward travel, allowed to board.
  • Arrival in the UK just went through the line that allows UK + agreed countries, (AU, US, NZ, JP, KR etc.) without question and just let through.
