Rejected petition BNO Passport Holders should entitle to use e-Gates for entry or exit in the UK

Grant the right to use the e-gates for BNO Passport Holders

More details

The BNO passport is one of the passports issued by the British government and is supposed to entitle you to use electronic gates to enter and exit the UK. Every time we entered the UK to return home, we wasted a lot of waiting time because we were not allowed to use the electronic gate and could not queue for British passports, which was very embarrassing.
It is unreasonable that electronic gates can be used by nationals of other countries (such as EU countries, Australia, Canada, Iceland, Japan, Liechtenstein, New Zealand, Norway, Singapore, South Korea, Switzerland or the United States), but BNOs issued by the British government cannot.
