Daniel, some in this country are profoundly sorry the U.K. failed to protect #HK autonomy and your way of life, as we promised. twitter.com/XinqiSu/status…

Another long day working on the #GenocideAmendment - grateful for amazing colleagues and constant encouragement from #Uyghur and #HK friends who are suffering. “I’d rather be ashes than dust”.
103
😭 Lots of friends arrested today in #HK
Remember the international community (esp the UK) has legal obligations to prevent this from happening.
If we get another hand-wringing 5-eyes statement about “serious concern” I swear.... twitter.com/austinramzy/st…

Happy this was picked up in #HK. They haven't managed to shut down the press just yet.

Yes. And if this is the case for FULL BRITISH CITIZENS imagine what it’s like for British Nationals (Overseas).
You don’t have to imagine. Look at the denied requests for consular sanctuary in #HK. twitter.com/patrickwintour…

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.

4. Just like the situation in #China, religious groups in #HK are now in the #CCP’s crosshairs under #nationalsecuritylaw. The world should avoid over-optimism about the new law and should be cautious of its actual impacts.

It's 81 days since #Andyismissing.
A lot has happened in #HK since he fell into #CCP's hands. More has been arrested under #NSL. Press freedom further trampled. The LegCo has gone defunct.
But we cannot forget about #save12HKyouths, for their only hope is your attention. t.co/JGrFJ4RTPX

For Andy and the #12HKyouths, it must've been a foreboding of endless harassment and unfair trials under a questionable legal system in #HK that would have taken away their free lives. They were fleeing from a place that's crumbling into a Orwellian police state. #save12hkyouths twitter.com/HK_diaries/sta…

No, I’m not wading in on what #HK should think about the #USElection2020
People can and should disagree. It’s healthy.
Will focus instead on ensuring the UK keeps its treaty promises. Right now, we are failing to keep them.

Lots of Qs today: “why do you keep running campaigns against Junius Ho.”
A: he embodies the worst aspects of pro-establishment corruption in #HK.
Won’t stop until he has a cabinet full of revoked privileges. #Holyfinished #sorrynotsorry twitter.com/lukedepulford/…

Thanks @erinotoole, the leader of Canada’s Conservatives and of the Official Opposition for condemning China’s Ambassador’s threatening remarks on #HK asylum seekers and Canadians in HK & calling for Magnitsky sanctions against those responsible for imposing #NationalSecurityLaw twitter.com/erinotoole/sta…

#HongKong activist @joshuawongcf says they’ve obtained from “source” a roster of the #HK Govt Flying Service, indicating the morning when a GFS flight was sent to Sai Kung as #12hkers went on a speedboat, it was a #HongKongPolice operation. Wong says activists know.....

#Breaking news by @appledaily_hk: #12hkyouths’ speedboat was allegedly tracked by #Hkgov aircraft before capture. Family members suspect that #HK gov cooperated w/ #China and helped Chinese cops to arrest the 12 #AsylumSeekers after their #refugee route was known. #save12hkyouths

Talked to @CBNNews about how #HK #Catholic textbooks are now used for #Beijing’s nationalist propaganda under #nationalsecuritylaw, while #China’s office in HK has just waged a new "struggle against the three mountains” - the city's legal, education and social service sectors. twitter.com/joshuawongcf/s…

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."
