Law / Does having a Polish Father qualify for dual citizenship? He came from Poland to the UK in 1948 [23]

Thanks for all the replies. My father did not serve in the army. He was taken to Germany at the age of 16 by the Germans as forced labour and was in Germany when the war ended. He came to the UK and was in a transit camp due to go to the USA but decided to stay in the UK. This was about 1948. He married my mother in 1950 and I was born in 1951. He returned to Poland to visit his family in 1964 and thats when he took out British Citizenship as it was thought it was the safest thing to do due to the political situation at the time.

I have his certificate of Naturalisation which is dated 11th October 1963.
How do I apply for citizen ship? Are there forms I can download or do I need to go to the Polish Embassy?

I have a Polish father who came to the UK in 1948 after the war. He married my mother and has worked and lived the ever since. He took out British citizenship in 1960 so he could return to Poland to visit his family. Now due to the issues regarding Brexit I was wondering if I could apply for dual citizenship as my father was born in Poland.
