Can I move from EM coverage to UK coverage at VP1?

Currently in a EM country coverage team. Considering moving to UK coverage team because I want less travel. I’m not British, not from a private school, but did move to the UK as a teenager and spent a few years in big4 covering UK clients before moving to IB. 

How feasible is it? Would I be able to make MD given I’m not British?
