Convenor of pro-democracy group Civil Human Rights Front, Jimmy Sham calls on #HongKong ppl 2 dress in black on National Day on 10.1, even if their planned march on the day is banned by #HK #police. “People have been suppressed & tortured for 70 years” in #China #HongKongProtests

612 Global Campaign for Hong Kong London Rally
@SKinnock speaking in the largest rally in London for Hong Kong,
about Beijing’s brutal crackdown in #HK
“HK needs the free world, and the free world needs HK.”

There's now a media literacy discussion among Hong Kong protesters, who have given great attention to foreign media coverage of #HK and are now applying the same skillset to analyse coverage of Beirut explosion and questioning some journalism practice in the Anglosphere.

Go watch my latest video on how the #CCP CAPITALIZES #HK special status as a #BLACKHAND for transporting #MISSLES 🚀.
#India intercepted this HK ship with missile components.

The very moment security chief John Lee withdrew the #extraditionbill. He was immediately showered with slogans from the pro-democracy lawmakers asking him to step down. #HongKongProtests #HongKong #HK #ExtraditionLaw

#HongKongPolice hv seized a semi-automatic glock pistol & more than 100 bullets in an operation on #HK Island, arresting 11 ppl. Organised crime detective Li Kwai-wah said it's the 1st time that a hand gun has been seized in 6 months of protests, and they're very concerned

Absolutely thrilled to receive a review copy of The #HongKong Diaries by the Last Governor, & @hk_watch Patron, Lord Patten.
I profoundly support his message on the back cover of the book, that #HK's #FightForFreedom is our fight
I look forward to reading & reviewing it soon

This is a blatant and naked contravention of Art 25 of the #ICCPR that guarantees every citizen’s right to elect and be elected. It is an affront to open, equal and fair elections and an insult to the legislature in a separation of powers constitutional set up in #HK’s system! twitter.com/MPIainDS/statu…

Daughter found this in a drawer. I was handed it by a group of triad thugs surrounding the man himself when we met in 2019. Before they realised I wasn’t there to be nice.
None of us knew it’d be the last time for a while #HK could kick people like this out of office.

110 🇬🇧lawmakers this week have written to @trussliz calling for an audit of #HK & #CCP officials assets in the UK as a pathway to introducing #Sanctions, citing our research which has found that 5 officials & 6 lawmakers own 🏡in London. scmp.com/news/china/art…

“Hong Kong Watch is working with lawmakers to introduce audit powers, which will allow the government to audit the Canadian assets of #HK officials and their families.” @jooeysiiu

1/2 Our Patron, the last Governor of #HongKong, Lord Patten of Barnes, is publishing his diaries from his time in #HK.
This weekend the Telegraph published extracts.
On 1 July we will be hosting an event with Chris Patten to launch his new book

#BREAKING #HongKong’s have the second death case of #coronavirus, the 70 year old man died at Princess Margaret Hospital. He’s the 55th confirmed case in #HK

@benedictrogers
I am thinking about @joshuawongcf today, as he spends yet another birthday in prison.
Let us never ever forget #JoshuaWong, and all political prisoners in #HongKong, and let us continue to #FightForFreedom and work to #FreeAllPoliticalPrisoners in #HK. twitter.com/hkdc_us/status…

2/ According to the latest poll, 64% of the city’s population opposes #China’s blackbox #nationalsecuritylegislation that completely bypasses local legislative scrutiny. However, Beijing chooses to ignore all critics and turns #HK into another Mainland city.

6. Under new draconian law, activists will be thrown into an extremely dangerous situation. The same law has been used for crushing #China's activists like rights lawyers #WangQuanzhang. Extracting confessions through torture, black jail & secret trial will be ubiquitous in #HK.

We’re surprised to see members of John Lee’s new #EXECO in #HK are still keen to squirrel their wealth in overseas 🏡 away from #CCP, including new Health Secretary Lo Chung-mau, who owns a flat with his wife in London 🇬🇧. #SanctionHKOfficials ceo.gov.hk/exco/eng/inter…

Over the last month there have been further arrests & trials of #PoliticalPrisoners in HK, the introduction of more #NationalSecurity courses at #HK universities & schools, & the publication of a new cybercrime law consultation paper. You can read more 👇 hongkongwatch.org/all-posts/2022…

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.
