Answer 1

If you are born to a parent who was born in the UK you can get a UK passport.

This site has what the eligibility requirements are for someone to get a UK passport.

Answer 2

To have a UK passport you have to be a UK citizen.

You can get him dual citizenship. That would be really good for him if you live between both countries and if he is mainly brought up here. Then one day if he chooses to stay in the UK he won't have any of the trouble you are having now.

Answer 3

u have to be a citzen though of uk
