I will be in Brussels and Venice for the following two weeks to join the Sakharov Fellowship. I am looking forward to meeting EU policymakers and promoting the importance of democracy around the world. It's also crucial to learn from other human rights defenders.

The largest independent workers' union HKCTU disbands under the pressure of the Chinese government.
In Beijing's eyes, workers' rights threaten their complete control of society.
If anyone on the left believes China's "socialist system" is worth following, they miss vital facts.

It's absolutely disgusting for the shameless @hkpoliceforce, which is part of the authoritarian force that crushes democratic demands from Hongkongers, to quote Gandhi.
These people must have forgotten how the peaceful protestors were badly hurt by their violence.

An essential read.
We need more support for the individuals and organizations that have committed themselves to democratic struggles around the world.

I'm always ready to advocate the democratic rights of Hongkongers and urge the world to hold the Chinese Communist Party accountable. It's been a year since I last visited Washington D.C. -- I'm grateful for the support I've received from policymakers and members of Congress.

2. Standing up for democracy and speaking up for our fellow Hongkongers are not shameful. The regime that brutally suppresses the legitimate demands of Hong Kong should be ashamed.
We fight for what we deserve and we raise our demands. -END

1. The CCP issued a "(false) fact sheet" that accused US for interference activities and repeated their propaganda language claimig that HK protests are staged by foreign powers. As the most named individual in it, I will see it as a badge of honor rather than being shamed.

The world needs the voice and passion of the youth to make changes possible. Thanks to all of you who’ve been fighting for the freedom of Hong Kong, Taiwan, and the world.

⚽️The football dialogue
Sports deepen bonds. Yesterday, a group of Hongkongers in UK enjoyed a friendly match with Labour MPs and staff. It’s crucial for us to continue spreading our words. We had a lot of fun -- thanks for the amazing performance by @SKinnock & @justinmadders.

Freedoms are lost by unjustifiable red lines, and more so by not knowing where the red lines are drawn. China’s definition of what constitutes a threat to ‘national security’ is deliberately obscure. The result is a people who never know what exactly they are allowed to ...

Democracy was a cherished dream in Hong Kong. Over the years, we have seen the repeated efforts of activists, lawmakers, colleagues, friends, and loved ones fight to save the Hong Kong they love. We cannot let their efforts go in vain.
