the BNA is even more complex today after some additional changes

as a British person living abroad who gave birth to a child abroad, it took me a lot of time and mental energy to determine

- what type of British nationality I am (yes, really)

- how that affects my child as she was born abroad

- how that affects any children she has in the future

varying circumstance around birth of all the people listed above change whether they are British citizens automatically, by application or simply not eligible at all

the legislation feels very messy to me
