I don't think you need to show nor need to have two passports. As long as you have documents to prove that you reacquire your Filipino ciizenship, that I guess would be enough.

there is a good reason not to keep the filipino passport (making a bit of an assumption here I know..).

basically if you are caught in a natural disaster, war, or something less serious (say you stole a car & were getting the death penalty ) the UK government would not help you if you had a fil passport.
If you had only a brit passport then the embassy in theory at least will help you escape, or stop you from getting .


there are lots of other plusses and minuses of course... but I know there are several people on the forum who have a background of nicking cars

But other dual citzens have found it useful to claim to be non brit when kidnapped (Brian keenan being one)
