This shocking video is now verified, I understand.
The U.K. has treaty obligations to Hong Kong. Behold, the state of those promises:

#BNO scheme opens today.
Welcome #HongKongers
I’m sorry you had to leave. The road ahead may be tough. And the scheme may not run totally smoothly at first. It’s a tough time for the UK and we are still preparing. Stick with it. You are welcome here.

Andy Li’s letter.
Between the stuff they forced you to write, we hear you, Andy.

Not much to celebrate this mid-autumn festival, but truly grateful to the wonderful person who sent me these mooncakes.
Brothers climb mountains.

Joshua Wong has done nothing wrong and must be released without charge.
This is naked political persecution. And the world sees it for what it is. #StandwithHK twitter.com/joshuawongcf/s…

Please read this.
“This is what we had been fearing...that people from Hong Kong could get sent over to China into a totally different system that’s well known for not following their own laws” Andy Li's sister, Beatrice.

He’s only gone and WON IT! Carried along by the #HKmovement, whose spirit refuses be crushed.

好多香港朋友嚟到英國之後，都覺得自己而家係寄人籬下，應該好好地生活唔好帶「麻煩」畀英國。
但事實係，英國冇實踐到我地對香港嘅諾言，先導致到你地要離鄉別井。
BNO只係一個亡羊補牢嘅方案，並冇解決到實際嘅問題。香港人你地絕對有資格、有必要要求英國政府向中國追究責任。

😭 - such desperation.
@DominicRaab we signed a treaty to defend the rights of these young people.
They are running because they know they have no hope of justice. We must keep our promises. #StandwithHK twitter.com/SunnyCheungky/…

100 days since capture.

The @GOVUK made solemn promises to #HongKong to uphold its human rights and way of life.
If all we can do is shrug while CHILDREN are rendered to Mainland China and denied basic rights, then we are FAILING to uphold those promises.
@DominicRaab we must do more for the #HK12 twitter.com/eviannesuen/st…

Absolutely disgraceful.
@DominicRaab must set out today the UK’s plan for holding China accountable for breaking their treaty promises to Hong Kong.
A lifeboat scheme’s great and all, but there’s little punishment in it or deterrant. Time for plan B URGENTLY. twitter.com/tomgrundy/stat…

Can’t take credit for this one. But easily the best news of the day.

Foreign Secretary @DominicRaab confirms to UK #IPAC that @GOVUK is open to considering sanctions against #HongKong officials. Also confirms an emerging international strategy for dealing with the #PRC. twitter.com/MPIainDS/statu…

Was just attacked in front of my kids by a guy who accused me of “starving his family” because I’m wearing this on my wrist. 🤡

BREAKING: @nathanlawkc wins Magnitsky Award, presented by Lord (Chris) Patten.
Proud and moved. But it’s a pride tarnished by the tragedy and hopelessness of the situation - and the sacrifices of so many.
Still, we #StandwithHongKong
