China’s ambassador to France has said the Taiwanese people would be “re-educated” after any successful annexation by #China
That alone is reason enough for the free world to defend #Taiwan

This is absurd. What on earth are we doing allowing the #CCP open access to conduct surveillance in the UK? We need our heads looking at, and we need to stop it, now. twitter.com/Channel4News/s…

Great to see the #Taiwan flag still flying at its embassy to the Holy See, just down the road from St Peter's in Rome.
Long may it remain there!

Benedict Rogers, a co-founder of Hong Kong Watch, said: “I welcome the fact that Rishi Sunak appears to be waking up to the challenge of China… because his track record doesn’t match the things he’s saying now.”

I welcome your sudden new focus on #China, @RishiSunak, but I have 3 suggestions
1. The threat is from #CCP, NOT the people or country of #China
2. You should recognise atrocities against #Uyghurs as #genocide
3. Sanction those responsible for dismantling #HongKong's freedoms twitter.com/RishiSunak/sta…

I one hundred percent agree with my friend @badiucao
See my earlier twitter threads in support of @DrewPavlou and see this most important thread 👇 twitter.com/badiucao/statu…

@benedictrogers
A totally absurd & outrageous injustice.
@DrewPavlou is a totally peaceful young man who heroically devotes his energies to highlighting #UyghurGenocide, #Tibet, the dismantling of #HongKong's freedoms & #China's #CCP repression
He should be applauded, not arrested / twitter.com/DrewPavlou/sta…

@benedictrogers
This is totally, utterly, completely ridiculous & outrageous
My friend @DrewPavlou is completely non-violent, & utterly committed democracy, human rights & the rule of law
He was peacefully protesting against the #CCP's #UyghurGenocide
There's no reason to involve @metpoliceuk twitter.com/DrewPavlou/sta…

Now we have reached the final two, I back @trussliz
As Foreign Secretary she's spoken repeatedly for freedom & #HumanRights & stood up to #CCP #China
We cannot go back to bad days of kowtowing to Beijing. We need a leader who recognises #UyghurGenocide & stands up for #HongKong
192
@benedictrogers
Let's never forget - I'll never forget - that when I & @hk_watch were threatened by #CCP under #HongKong's draconian #NationalSecurityLaw, @trussliz was one of the first to speak out
I believe in her "Network of Liberty"

I have a lot of respect for @RishiSunak. The way he handled the pandemic was deeply impressive. But I think we all want to know what his #China policy is & where he stands on #UyghurGenocide & dismantling of #HongKong's freedoms
