Hidden in @CommonsForeign (v good) report on #Uyghurs is this bombshell: 👏

#Breaking: ALL Lithuanian Parliament mail servers *and phones* were taken down today. We don’t know what caused it yet.
In unrelated news, this is what Chinese State run @globaltimesnews had to say about 🇱🇹 recently.

Worried about losing. But not sufficiently worried about genocide.

#BREAK
@FCDOGovUK Minister @Jesse_Norman
“Extremely concerned” about beating of #HKBob
Foreign Secretary @JamesCleverly has summoned Chinese Ambassador to demand an explanation for behaviour of consulate staff. Investigation underway.

Think this is bad. Wait until “Super Mario: Xi Jinping Thought Edition” comes out. twitter.com/StephenMcDonel…

We have no choice to expel the 🇨🇳 diplomats who attacked #BobChan

Thank you @badiucao 😭 twitter.com/badiucao/statu…

Why is the @StateDept expressing outrage about the systematic rape of #Uyghurs before our own Government? This was a @BBCNews story. And it should have run at the top of every bulletin.

This isn’t a spoof. Someone from DH&MAC (lol) has actually said that there is no XUAR atrocity because he chats to pretty #Uyghur girls online. And #HK’s broadcaster has reported it. Laugh or cry. twitter.com/rthk_enews/sta…

Awesome #IPAC network making progress.
👉EU and UK will debate @Beijing2022 diplo boycott on the SAME DAY (thanks @EnginEroglu_FW)
👉UK motion will be taken to a vote. 👉And here’s @timloughton asking Boris about it an hour ago. twitter.com/fbermingham/st…

Hard to describe how MASSIVE this is.
🇺🇸Gov now presumes *all* imports from Xinjiang are made with #Uyghur slavery unless proven otherwise.
Meanwhile 🇬🇧Gov seeks “increased bilateral trade” with PRC and can’t even be bothered to do the promised review of exports @trussliz twitter.com/StateDeptSpox/…
642
Managing expectations:
Government has prevented a vote on the #GenocideAmendment so only one vote counts today:
The vote on @neill_bob wrecking amendment. If it passes, we put courts back in when it goes to the Lords. If it fails, we put entire amendment back in the Lords. 👏
643
This is what happens when you legislate yourself into dependency on forced #Uyghur labour.
We don’t want #NetZero built on the back of slaves. Diversify supply AWAY from China NOW. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Amidst the #GenocideAmendment debate it’s wonderful to have something positive to say about the government. This is fantastic work from @pritipatel 🔥🔥 twitter.com/hongkongarc/st…
645
Hope that @MFA_China ridiculous behaviour today will precipitate the UK’s long overdue sanction of #ChenQuanguo - the butcher of Xinjiang and Tibet.
Ludicrous that this hasn’t already happened.

Krish is doing a huge amount to welcome Hong Kong BN(O)s.
@pritipatel should establish a BN(O) Commission with people like Krish on it to enable the UK to ensure this unprecedented scheme runs smoothly. twitter.com/krishk/status/…

#BREAKING: seems likely @DominicRaab is going to announce sanctions of #Uyghur abusing officials today in a bid to head of defeat on #GenocideAmendment
Massive win for this campaign, if so! twitter.com/MrHarryCole/st…

Any survivor of abuse will see through this awful video.
But for media struggling to get a read, I recommend the “Scripted and Staged” section in @SafeguardDefend piece on forced confessions safeguarddefenders.com/en/blog/new-re… h/t @Peterinexile
