Is the child of a British citizen mother automatically a British citizen?

No, not unless they are born in the United Kingdom. However, someone born after 1961 to a British mother, and who is a citizen of a Commonwealth country, can apply for citizenship, with a few exceptions. There are restrictions based on criminal record, etc, but in most cases, citizenship can be obtained. This is due to a change made in 2006. Prior to 2006, only children born after 1983 could apply for citizenship through their mothers.

Is Mahtama Gandhi philosophy relevant today?

Gandhi's philosophy included ideas such as the following:

(1) Gandhi believed that at the core of every religion was truth and love (compassion, nonviolence and The Golden Rule). In fact, later in his life when he was asked whether he was a Hindu, he replied: "Yes I am. I am also a Christian, a Muslim, a Buddhist and a Jew."

(2) resistance to tyranny by totally non-violent civil disobedience (However, Gandhi was aware that this level of nonviolence required incredible faith and courage, which he realized not everyone possessed. He therefore advised that everyone need not keep to nonviolence, especially if it were used as a cover for cowardice.)

To answer the question:

Yes, a philosophy that includes ideas such as those above is certainly relevant today. As our planet seems to shrink under a rapidly growing world population, more and more people, likely from backgrounds diverse in faith and culture, are going to find themselves on one another's doorsteps. In an age where technology can significantly multiply the destructive power of an individual, a philosophy of non-violence and tolerance is certainly relevant.
