Today, Alexandra “Grandma Wong” was sentenced to 8 months in prison for peacefully protesting 3 years ago—for waving a flag and saying slogans in #HongKong
She never gave up her fight for HongKongers.

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

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"

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!🇹🇼🇪🇺

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.

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

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…

@benedictrogers
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…

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.

A nurse carried a ton of saline solution, medical cotton swabs in areas where protest was happening with thousands of tear gas shot at the protestors...
What would you call her?
A Rioter or
A Medic ?
