When #China fails to silence #HK's dissents with fear, it appeals to force. Pro-#Beijing thugs disturbed one of our booths this evening when we urged more #HKers to vote. Also, helpers of other democratic parties were reportedly assaulted by Beijing supporters. twitter.com/joshuawongcf/s…

Police wear highest protective clothing and take #selfie to deal with urgent #coronavirus situation in Hong Kong.

[#HK Christianity becomes #Beiijing’s tool of nationalist propaganda]
1. After textbooks were found censoring #TiananmenSquareMassacre, now even religious textbooks at primary schools were injected w/ Chinese patriotism, asking students to learn from Jesus to love their nation.

[On brink of collapse, #NationalSecurityLaw will be passed by JUNE 30]
1. Against all critics, #nationalsecurity legislation is effectively a done deal. Far earlier than previously expected, the law will be passed on or before JUNE 30, on eve of anniversary of #HK's transfer.

1/ It is my honor to share with @MarshaBlackburn the latest update in #HK on the call. #Beijing & #Hkgov prioritize crackdown of dissidence over health of #HKers. Director of #China’s office in #HK even called democracy movement as “political #coronavirus” & urged to suppress.

A complete outrage which shames 🇬🇧
We promised to maintain HK’s high degree of autonomy and way of life.
What did #HK get?
9 years in jail for waving a flag Beijing doesn’t like.
@DominicRaab we must move to accountability. twitter.com/XinqiSu/status…

3. Despite 610,000+ #Hongkongers voting in #HK’s primary, #Beijing now staged the biggest-ever crackdowns on the city’s election, by disqualifying nearly all pro-democracy runners, from young progressive groups to traditional moderate parties.

5 days until the #HK BNO scheme.
I really hope there's an integration plan. Things could go badly wrong. Non-exhaustive:
1. Quarantine
2. Language
3. HK community divisions.
4. Stupid assumption all HKers are rich.
The e-gates will open, but what will be our welcome?

4. With a more stringent #nationalsecuritylaw in #China, as well as other draconian criminal laws #HK doesn’t have, it is worrying that they could be sent to #China’s secret courts & black prisons, with restricted access to lawyers & high risk of forced confession under torture.

[Cherrypicking evidence for #speechcrimes]
1. Hours after #Carrielam’s #freespeech assurance, #HKpolice charges #HK activist #TamTakChi on “uttering seditious words” just because he chanted slogans like “#5DemandsNot1Less”, “revolt” etc. Worse still, Tam's bail bid was banned.

The fate of the ‘democracy dozen’ will point to #HongKong’s future
1. "Police detained and levelled new charges at pro-democracy leader Joshua Wong...the move is part of a widening crackdown against prominent defenders of #HK's freedoms and rule of law."

Absurd, even for Hong Kong in 2020.
This is a transparent attempt to scare #HK Twitter into silence. They know how influential it has been among Western politicians.
Don’t fall for it. It just underlines the power and necessity of your voice.

[In response to Australia's new policies on #HK]
1. When #China is imposing the new sweeping #nationalsecuritylaw on the city, Australia’s new visa policy serves as a vital safe haven for freedom-loving #HongKongers amid political persecution under China’s new Orwellian law.

He condemns the #HKpolice and will keep supporting us!
We’re grateful. Plz thank him!

[Response to US's visa ban on CCP officials]
1. When #Beijing insists on ramming through an unpopular & sweeping #nationalsecuritylaw that imperils HK’s autonomy, @SecPompeo just announced visa bans on #CCP officials responsible for undermining #HK’s autonomy and human rights.

[Cancelling separation of powers in #HK]
1. #Carrielam claimed today there's no separation of powers in HK after #HKGov’s recent textbook censorship. Even the next Chief Justice that she appointed, Andrew Cheung, said in 2008 that separation of powers is enshrined in Basic Law.
