Just for clarity a 'dual' licence doesn't exist - you may be able to do parallel training but they are two separate licences issued by two different licensing authorities (and incidentally two separate initial Class 1 medicals).

Good luck

ps get the Class 1(s) before spending a single bean on professional training.

I wouldn't say EASA is useless in the UK, one of the key players in entry level pilot jobs in the UK will require you to have an EASA license alongside your CAA one if you want to apply for them.
