Question: I am a British citizen who is a permanent resident of another country. What is the advice for me?

Answer passage (source: UK):
page_title: Guidance Travel advice: coronavirus (COVID-19)
section_headers: If you live abroad permanently
section_content: As a permanent resident overseas, you should consider your own personal
circumstances and take into account all of the information available:


if you stay, follow the advice of the local authorities where you are. Further information on measures that countries have taken is available in the ‘staying during coronavirus’ sections of our travel advice pages


if you wish to return to the UK, you should make arrangements to return now. This includes planning for where you will stay and how you will travel there


We are only advising British people travelling overseas to return is because
it may be more difficult for them if they cannot get back to the UK.

Reviewer feedback on this answer:
This answer gives the best advice for the question and relates fully to the original question.
This seems like an acceptable answer if not a little generic. It provides a link to travel pages where people can look to consider what their travel options are if they wish to return to the UK

section_content: There will be changes at the border because of coronavirus. Check what you
need to do before you travel.
Some UK Visa Application Centres (VACs) are resuming services, where local
restrictions allow. For updates to the status of VACs in your country,
contact:

TLS contact if you’re in Europe, Africa and parts of the Middle East
VFS global for all other countries

resuming, existing customers will be contacted.
Some English Testing Centres are also resuming services. Visit the
International English Language Testing System (IELTS)’s
website, the Pearson Test of English
website or the LanguageCert
website or contact your test
centre for more information on where we are reopening and how you can book
your Secure English Language Test.
Getting your documents
Due to worldwide border, travel and public health restrictions it may not be
possible to return your passport at this time. Contact the VAC where you
logged your application to see if courier return is available in your
location.
British nationals abroad who need to apply for a passport
If your country’s VAC is still closed, you won’t be able to apply for a
British passport. You can find your nearest visa application centre and check
if it’s open. We will
prioritise customers who have been waiting for a decision before accepting new
applications.
If you urgently need to travel to the UK, you can apply for an emergency
travel document.
If you are applying for a Global Talent, Start-up or Innovator visa
If your endorsement from an endorsing body has expired because you have not
been able to travel to the UK you may still be eligible for a visa. You should
make your application as planned and we will consider all applications on a
case by case basis.
If your 30 day visa to work, study or join family has expired
If your 30 day visa to travel to the UK for work, study or to join family has
expired, or is about to expire, you can request a replacement visa with
revised validity dates free of charge until the end of this year.
To make a request, contact the Coronavirus Immigration Help Centre. You’ll
need to include your name, nationality, date of birth and your GWF reference
number with ‘REPLACEMENT 30 DAY VISA’ in the subject line. If you’ve already
contacted us about this, please let us know in your email.
You’ll be contacted when our VACs reopen to arrange for a replacement visa to
be endorsed in your passport.
You will not be penalised for being unable collect your BRP while coronavirus
measures are in place.
This process will be in place until the end of 2020.

This answer does not relate to permanent residents in another country and what the advice is.
This is a great answers because it talks about what British citizens living abroad can do. It tells you who to contact in certain situations and provides a number of links with additional information.

page_title: Guidance Coronavirus (COVID-19): advice for UK visa applicants and temporary UK residents
section_headers: If you’re in the UK and your leave expires between 24 January 2020 and 31 July 2020
section_content: Your visa will be extended to 31 July 2020 if you cannot leave the UK because
of travel restrictions or self-isolation related to coronavirus (COVID-19).
You must request an extension by updating your records with the Coronavirus
Immigration Team
(CIT) if
your visa is expiring and you cannot leave the UK at present but are not
planning to stay in the UK in the long term.
If you have already had your visa extended to 31 May 2020 you visa will be
extended automatically to 31 July 2020.
You will be expected to return to your home country as soon as it is safe and
possible to do so.
If you’re applying to stay in the UK long-term
You can apply from the UK to switch to a long-term UK visa until 31 July 2020
if your leave expires between 24 January 2020 and 31 July 2020. This includes
applications where you would usually need to apply for a visa from your home
country.
You’ll need to meet the requirements of the route you are applying for and pay
the UK application fee.
This includes those whose leave has already been extended to 31 July 2020.
You can apply online. The terms of your leave will remain the same until your
application is decided.
Application and Service Centres in the UK
Some UK Visa and Citizenship Application Centres (UKVCAS) will reopen for
existing customers on 1 June 2020. You can check which UKVCAS centres are
open.
Service and Support Centres (SSCs) are temporarily closed because of
coronavirus (COVID-19).
If you’ve already made an appointment
We have contacted you if you made an appointment to attend a UKVCAS or SSC
that is still temporary closed to let you know it has been postponed. You’ll
be contacted when you can book a new appointment.
Your immigration status in the UK will not change as a result of you not being
able to attend an appointment.
If you are on a Tier 1 Entrepreneur visa and your business has been
disrupted
You no longer need to employ at least 2 people for 12 consecutive months. The
12 month period you are required to employ someone for can be made up of
multiple jobs across different months.
Time when your employees were furloughed will not count towards the 12 month
period.
If you have not been able to employ staff for 12 months by the time your visa
expires, you will be allowed to temporarily extend your stay to give you time
to meet the requirement.
These arrangements will continue for applications made after 31 May 2020,
where the jobs you are relying on were disrupted due to COVID-19.

application
You can start your course or studies before your visa application has been
decided if:

your sponsor is a Tier 4 sponsor
you have been given a confirmation of acceptance for studies (CAS)
you submitted your application before your current visa expired and you show your sponsor evidence of this
the course you start is the same as the one listed on your CAS
you have a valid Academic Technology Approval Scheme (ATAS) certificate if required

If your application is eventually rejected as invalid or refused you must stop
your course or studies.

your application

you have been assigned a Certificate of Sponsorship (CoS)
you submitted your application before your current visa expired and you show your sponsor evidence of this
the job you start is the same as the one listed on your CoS

If your application is eventually rejected as invalid or refused your sponsor
will stop sponsoring you and you must stop working for them.

sponsors, their students and short-term students in response to the COVID-19
outbreak.

Reviewer feedback on this answer:
This answer relates to those applying for visas, not for British citizens that are abroad.
This response goes into a ton of depth about having a visa for staying in the UK but that is the opposite of the question that wanted to know about British citizens living abroad so not a good answer
