Do we think it likely that a government which describes mass internment, forced sterilisation, family separation, brainwashing, and rape as “human rights protection” will honour its promise to “move towards” ratifying forced labour treaties, @vonderleyen? twitter.com/ChinaMissionGv…

FYI @DominicRaab @GregHands @mariacaulfield @nadams - we agree with👇 100% but, as you know, court route will be blocked by China’s veto. How then do we uphold our Genocide Convention obligations?
Inoperable and immoral policy which must now change.

Will the Government stand up for one of their MPs, currently being harassed and accused of lying by Chinese Embassy officials? twitter.com/Nus_Ghani/stat…

Ludicrous. They will stop at nothing to ensure Jimmy dies in jail, manufacturing charges and imposing extreme sentences. The whole world sees it.
Why are foreign judges legitimising this travesty of justice by continuing to sit on Hong Kong’s courts? twitter.com/holmeschan_/st…

Proud to serve on @CPHumanRights and bloody proud of this headline. Qudos to @benedictrogers for his tireless work on behalf of those who need help. Thanks @larisamlbrown for this report.

多謝Telegraph畀我評論匯豐又一次以雙重標準、偽善嘅方式營運。如果匯豐唔立即解凍民運人士、相關機構嘅户口，佢地同自打嘴巴冇分別。

Trudeau trying to spin this as a victory is 🤯 What actually happened:
1. Weng Wanzhou charged with massive fraud in 🇨🇦
2. Completely innocent 2 Michaels held hostage in 🇨🇳for 1000 days+
3. Canada agrees to exchange Weng for the hostages.
Clear win for 🇨🇳 + hostage diplomacy twitter.com/JustinTrudeau/…

The supreme body of the UK State - Parliament - has expressed its view. We believe that the UK can no longer ignore ICJ jurisprudence - we have a clear duty to act without delay.

🚨Confirms what we’re hearing: #HongKong BN(O) scheme is LIKELY to be extended tomorrow thanks to @DamianGreen amendment + @hk_watch campaign.
Let’s hope that it’s more than a Despatch Box promise b/c @DominicRaab #GenocideAmendment ones never happened

After some research I’ve discovered BN(O) visa holders cannot stand for Parliament in the UK.
This isn’t good enough.
With a diaspora of hundreds of thousands, the community must have representation.
I’m going to launch a campaign on this. #HongKongerswelcome

Dear @iocmedia why are PRC athletes allowed to celebrate the greatest mass murderer in history?
If anyone is still on the fence about how @Beijing2022 will be used for political purposes see the below screenshot of now deleted tweet from PRC state media via @kerrya11en

Listen to this. Really shocking stuff even by @iocmedia 👎🏻 standards.
Dick “doesn’t know” about existence #Uyghur camps that nearly every major government says exist.
The IOC needs urgent reform.
Superb journalism from Rieger. H/T @adrianzenz

IOC: stop sports in 🇷🇺 because of 🇺🇦 invasion.
Also IOC: keep sports in 🇨🇳 despite #Uyghur genocide.

It’s about time the IOC - and Thomas Bach’s - relationship to the Chinese state was investigated. si.com/olympics/2022/…

❗️Just heard that Foreign Secretary @JamesCleverly and contacts in Number Ten are on this - looking at what can be done.
