Many of the most vulnerable arrivals in the UK in recent weeks were born after 1997. It is vital that they are welcomed.
Thank you @SarahChampionMP for raising this important issue. twitter.com/SarahChampionM…

For many Hong Kongers, the honouring of police officers responsible for presiding over the brutality in the 2019 protests is an insult. An independent inquiry must still be a priority.

Good to see this important HK bill pass out of the House Foreign Affairs Committee. Vital there is coordinated international action to offer a lifeboat to any Hong Konger who needs it. Young people particularly.
Thank you @Malinowski, @RepKinzinger

.@benedictrogers: "I had a copy of @appledaily_hk, and so I went and sat on a station platform in London to read it, in solidarity with that student. Maybe that’s an idea – something all of us could do? Peacefully reading a newspaper is not a crime."

Dozens of people arrested on 1 October. 12 young Hong Kongers facing charges on the Mainland. Thousands of riot police on the streets. Hong Kong is facing a new repressive era, and needs international solidarity more than ever.

Hong Kong’s Electoral Affairs Commission does not have jurisdiction in mainland China, and none of the pan-democrats are able to campaign across the border.
This is a bad decision which will further compromise Hong Kong's quasi-democratic legislature.
