👏Board of Deputies of British Jews president pleads with MPs to vote for the #GenocideAmendment ahead of today’s vote, and points out flaws in @neill_bob amendment (which does nothing to help #Uyghurs)

I just voted for @ShaunBaileyUK - the only candidate to have a clear plan for tens of thousands of #HongKongers headed to London, and the only candidate repeatedly calling out London’s complicity in #Uyghur exploitation. Good luck, Shaun!
603
I think we'll be looking at mass abstentions tomorrow. The #GenocideAmendment passed the Lords with a 171 vote majority. The Government is preventing the @HouseofCommons from voting on it at all.

Totnes was into this decoupling thing way before it was cool

It’s getting harder to keep the spotlight on 🇨🇳 atrocities in the #Uyghur region and #Tibet, and even harder to keep attention on #HongKong
We have to take every opportunity. So I’m looking forward to this event. 👇 twitter.com/GenevaSummit/s…

Was asked by a journalist the other day if I’ve had any cyber intimidation since being vocal on #Uyghurs #HK etc.
Actually quite surprising to see it all written down. And this is *nothing* compared to what people like @xu_xiuzhong and diaspora groups endure.
It won’t work.

'You must bear in mind that all your family and relatives are with us. You must think very carefully about that fact.'
Important piece by @joelmgunter on intimidation of #Uyghurs abroad. It’s worth your time. 👇 bbc.com/news/world-asi…

Wow!!
After @sajidjavid kicked @HIKVISIONUK to the curb for their involvement in anti-Uyghur atrocities…
I’m hearing that the @BSCCommissioner is writing to @BorisJohnson and @cabinetofficeuk to request other Departments do the same.
👏👏👌

Final day of this set of @TribunalUyghur hearings. Good to see @SKinnock and @Nus_Ghani in attendance to hear @nyrola testimony.

Hearing that @RishiSunak team is about to put stuff out about about how tough he is on China.
Second politician to have a Damascene conversion to the cause in a week - is there an election on or something?
As 👇recently 👇as 👇 January 👇

How easily we yielded our freedoms this past year.
How foolishly we turned a blind eye to police zealously trespassing on liberties previously held sacrosanct.

If @UNHumanRights can’t hold 🇨🇳 to account for putting millions in camps, what’s the point in it?
Thanks @abcnews

Preposterously, everyone on the first section here is on the HKSAR wanted list. @nathanlawkc @Ray_WongHKI @finnlau_cd @honcqueslaus @SimonCh15198572 @tedhuichifung

Respect @DominicRaab but this is infuriating.
Where are:
❌"urgent" review of export controls, promised in January?
❌changes to the Modern Slavery Act?
❌mysterious import controls cited recently by PM?
The UK has done NOTHING to hold China or HKSAR to account for ⬇️ twitter.com/DominicRaab/st…

🚨🚨“The UK won’t rest until Hong Kong has its freedom back” from @trussliz
🥺 YES. FINALLY. Have spent three years campaigning for this rhetoric.
Now it HAS to be backed up with action.

#BREAKING Lord Alton (@DavidAltonHL) has secured a Private Notice Question (!) for TODAY about PRC “agent” Christine Lee securing changes to UK legislation.
Quiet week then.

At least the people of #HK will be able to punish these horrific failures at the ballot box….oh twitter.com/AFP/status/149…

In case you missed it.
A *court* in Hong Kong has forbidden the words “Tiananmen massacre” to be used by a defendant.
A reminder that British judges still participate in this farce of a legal system. twitter.com/hkfp/status/15…
