I can’t help wishing #HongKong movement would be more explicitly angry about this.
Thanks @tickerNEWSco for letting me say it again. #JimmyLai

This remarkable woman @MahmutRahima has spent the entire day translating the most harrowing testimonies imaginable. And now she is here, standing up for her people on e again. The @GOVUK should honour her courage and dignity. #TiananmenSquareMassacre 🕯

Troubling scoop from @NdosSantosCNN on the Christine Lee scandal. My little bit below on @tradegovuk failures. See link for full video piece.

Gee, let’s think.
Restore #HongKong?
Leave #Uyghurs alone?
Stop persecuting #Tibet?
Stop threatening #Taiwan? twitter.com/AmbQinGang/sta…

Dear @DominicRaab
What happened to this “urgent” review, promised in Jan? #Uyghurs

Cardinal Zen at the funeral of #BenedictXVI in Rome today.
He knows politically motivated prosecution awaits him back in #HongKong.
I wish he wouldn’t return. But he will, I am certain.

This is the kind of thing at the heart of the UK’s inconsistent and increasingly incomprehensible China policy.
January: let’s do import and export controls
February: let’s break records on 🇬🇧🇨🇳 trade

🇬🇧 Minister: “don’t do genocide or crush Hong Kong” ✅
Also 🇬🇧 Minister (in same meeting 🤯): “let’s do more business” ❌

🚨First bit of big BN(O) 🇭🇰 news of the day. More expected. Excellent work @AndrewRosindell and those who have campaigned on this for YEARS - finally righting a long injustice. order-order.com/2021/12/06/hom…

This is scheduled for tomorrow.
The Chinese Ambassador should not be allowed on the Parliamentary Estate while MPs and Peers remain sanctioned.
664
This is a joke.
The 🇬🇧 Six Monthly Report on #HongKong fails to condemn another material breach of the Sino British Joint Declaration, but instead says that we want to “work constructively” with those responsible.
That’ll really show ‘em. 🤦♂️
665
So the rather grandly titled @UkCommittee (read: die-hard Golden Era pro-China lobby) is attempting to blindside MPs into believing it's an impartial outfit.
I went to their help desk to ask for some "advice".
Look forward to the reply. #StandwithHongKong #StandwithUyghurs

Spare a thought for Afghan #Uyghurs, because in its efforts to "use" China to "contain" the Taliban, our Government clearly hasn't. Must read. 👇

And here is Bach championing the propaganda mouthpieces of Xi’s regime.
To say nothing of his *appaling* response to #Uyghurs who requested that the IOC move @Beijing2022
Bach is playing an active role in a cover up of an alleged sexual assault. He should resign.
669
Erm. This is unacceptable @Wimbledon
A female tennis player alleges sexual assault against a senior CCP official, is effectively detained in China, and you don’t allow her name to be mentioned?
The @WTA has spoken out. Why not you?
Hear no evil….? #freepengshuai twitter.com/DrewPavlou/sta…

💪💪 🚨🚨 GREAT NEWS! @sajidjavid “sympathetic” to #GenocideAmendment which will stop UK buying PPE that may have been made through #Uyghur forced labour.
WE CAN DO THIS ✊

Anything to say @UKinHongKong @ukinchina @FCDOGovUK?
While #HK burns the best you can produce is some supine, staggeringly naive nonsense about how China is some kind of climate change saviour?
Your silence is a national humiliation. twitter.com/XinqiSu/status…

Daughter had a nasty fall yesterday at school, so I had to take her to work.
Two years ago an anonymous HKer sent this 🐸 from 🇭🇰 (symbol has different connotations in HK/ not associated with ‘hate’ in any way).
It was the only thing that comforted her!
