Reviewer feedback on this answer:
The question wants to know if you should return to the UK if you live abroad but this response is talking about what you should do if you can't return to the UK. These are opposite things
This does not answer the question.This information provides recommendation on what to do if British citizens cannot currently return to the UK during Covid-19 pandemic. It does not provide any information on whether or not people who live permanently outside the UK should return to the UK during pandemic.

Reviewer feedback on this answer:
This does not answer the question. This answer provides information on people who are traveling outside of UK and whether or not they should come back to the UK during the Covid-19 pandemic. It does not provide information on whether or not people who live permanently abroad should return to the UK during the pandemic.
This response is kind of related to the question but doesn't specifically say if you should come back to the UK if you live abroad. This is more about what you should do if you make the decision to return
