I don’t judge those who please guilty to crimes they have not committed in #HK
But I’m humbled by those who know the price and decide to plead guilty anyway.

I welcome your sudden new focus on #China, @RishiSunak, but I have 3 suggestions
1. The threat is from #CCP, NOT the people or country of #China
2. You should recognise atrocities against #Uyghurs as #genocide
3. Sanction those responsible for dismantling #HongKong's freedoms twitter.com/RishiSunak/sta…

@benedictrogers
A totally absurd & outrageous injustice.
@DrewPavlou is a totally peaceful young man who heroically devotes his energies to highlighting #UyghurGenocide, #Tibet, the dismantling of #HongKong's freedoms & #China's #CCP repression
He should be applauded, not arrested / twitter.com/DrewPavlou/sta…

Now we have reached the final two, I back @trussliz
As Foreign Secretary she's spoken repeatedly for freedom & #HumanRights & stood up to #CCP #China
We cannot go back to bad days of kowtowing to Beijing. We need a leader who recognises #UyghurGenocide & stands up for #HongKong

Three years ago, on 7.21, #HongKong witnessed the Triads being let loose to attack innocent HongKongers in Yuen Long station. These thugs were encouraged by pro-Beijing lawmakers and the police.
721 is the date when many HongKongers no longer believe that the rule of law exists.

It's something very special when @Europarl_EN VP @nicolabeerfdp & her delegation compare notes with Lam Wing-kee at Causeway Bay Books on literature, freedom, #HongKong & the need to keep democratic #Taiwan safe from authoritarian #China's aggression. We're stronger together!🇹🇼🇪🇺

@benedictrogers
Let's never forget - I'll never forget - that when I & @hk_watch were threatened by #CCP under #HongKong's draconian #NationalSecurityLaw, @trussliz was one of the first to speak out
I believe in her "Network of Liberty"

@benedictrogers
I have a lot of respect for @RishiSunak. The way he handled the pandemic was deeply impressive. But I think we all want to know what his #China policy is & where he stands on #UyghurGenocide & dismantling of #HongKong's freedoms

“Shengjing #Bank, return my hard-earned money!
“Shengjing Bank does not cash out large deposits at maturity. Don't deposit at Shengjing Bank!"
The banner says this.
#ShengjingBank is a commercial bank in Shenyang City, #CCPChina. It is listed on #HongKong Stock Exchange.

The new Chief Executive of HongKong basically says he is the judge, the police and the law maker. He just uses one sentence to destroy the foundation of HK.

Amid the large police presence in #HongKong during Xi Jinping’s apparent ‘visit’ on 7.1, a sign was found in busy Causeway Bay. It reads:
“We have the right to mourn. I’ll keep mourning you til someone mourns me.”
「悼念是每個人的權利，所以直至有人悼念我之前，我都會繼續悼念你」

"Unless the regime is made to pay a price for its actions ... it will only be emboldened in its repression ... We cannot allow it to get away with breaking promises and destroying #HongKong with impunity."
