Yes, but how do you get out of the country to live somewhere else without getting your first UK passport while you are still in the UK?

I'm not sure, but I think the requirements when you are renewing an expired passport are somewhat easier to meet.

No, not if it's been expired for a while. There's a grace period where it counts as a renewal, after that it's treated as a "first time" application.

Also, if you're born in the UK as a dual national, you don't have to ever get a British passport. I flew to Canada on my Canadian passport. There's nothing stopping you from doing that.
