Thanks to @MaajidNawaz for having me. The world needs to know about @UN complicity in #UyghurGenocide. @antonioguterres this needs to stop now. It is not difficult. Just stop.

Human Rights Lawyer Emma Reilly reveals that the UN is actively sharing the names of Uyghur dissidents with the Chinese Government, telling Maajid Nawaz the actions of the UN here are 'criminal.'

@MelissaFleming @UNHumanRights @volker_turk A solution without a problem. Human rights aren't failing at the grassroots. They fail when UN officials like you and Volker fail to stand up for activists who risk their lives and freedom.
Talk about Uyghurs undergoing genocide. Talk about Iranians being executed for protesting

My first degree was in maths.
The UN receives 800 reports of rape or sexual assault by its staff per year.
The UN says only 1 in 20 is reported.
That's 16,000 a year. 300 a week.
1 of 3 victims are children.
0 cases of lifting diplomatic immunity.
0 criminal convictions.

@DebTood @bradcsmith @am640 Yeah, that shadow-banning is strong. Thanks for the @ :)

@volker_turk Human rights are bottom-up, not top-down. Your office is where progress goes to die. The grassroots do not need your help.
You're supposed to be a last resort when human rights are not respected. Like the #Uyghur genocide you insist on being complicit in, for example.
Say Uyghur.

@HillelNeuer As someone who has been fired by the UN (in my case for doing the right thing), check the OIOS report when it comes out (prob Jan 2027) - it's *very* likely they each got "one-half termination indemnity," of around $50,000 each.
The corruption is hidden within the bureaucracy.

[Emma Reilly @EmmaReillyTweet]

@HillelNeuer She had an absolute right to issue the statement just in her own name. She could simply have insisted.

[Emma Reilly @EmmaReillyTweet]

@volker_turk More empty words over concrete action. Does your office do *anything* any more?

Beijing lectures about the importance of dialogue on every occasion, but abruptly cancelled two important diplomatic meetings with the EU this month.

“Beijing appears to be trying to send a warning to the EU’s national leaders ahead of a European Council summit in Brussels next week”, where the EU leaders will discuss a tougher China policy.

@Dabokunda @UN_Valovaya @UNGeneva @UNHumanRights Did you discuss handing names of human rights activists to Beijing?
I refused, Lidiya agreed.
I was fired. Lidiya was promoted to NGO liaison (even more access to info), then Valovaya's Chief of Staff.
There has never been any investigation. OHCHR says in court policy ongoing.

@MelissaFleming @UN Does it mention Oil for Food? Cholera in Haiti? The thousands of child rapes committed by UN staff every year? Your use of diplomatic immunity to protect criminals? The fact you defend in court a right to lie? Complicity in genocide? Funding terrorism?

[Emma Reilly @EmmaReillyTweet]

@UN_Valovaya @UNGeneva @Dabokunda @UN_HRC Did you also coordinate continued retaliation against me for daring to report the UN policy of handing names of dissidents to Beijing? Or how you promoted the woman who passed over names to be your Chief of Staff?

[Emma Reilly @EmmaReillyTweet]

@pass_blue They should be vetoing her stance on the ongoing #Uyghur genocide. She is China's candidate.

[Inner City Press @innercitypress]

Thanks. I started covering the UN corruption trial of Ng Lap Seng (who bribed many UN officials to bluewash a Macao casino)- and it was while I was covering UN corruption case of CEFC China Energy, linked to SG @AntonioGuterres, that I was thrown out. & @USUN? Zip

@AustraliaUN_GVA @Dabokunda @UNHumanRights Did you ask if she approves the policy of handing names of Australian citizens cooperating with the Human Rights Council and treaty bodies to China on request?

[Spotlight on China @spotlightoncn]

The author of a Home Office-backed report on the Chinese state and UK organised crime was the target of suspected honey traps and an attempted compromise by a former British police officer.

Dr David Wilson said multiple attempts were made to influence or discredit his recently declassified analysis of the policing challenges posed by the Chinese Communist party (CCP) and criminal syndicates.

Before starting his research—which involved interviews with 14 UK law enforcement agencies—Wilson was warned by former Hong Kong police officers that his work would attract bribes or honey traps.

Just weeks later, he was contacted by a naturalised British citizen and former UK police officer, who invited him to a specific Chinese restaurant to meet "people who can help." Recognizing the tactic from his warnings, Wilson declined the meeting.

Wilson, a former police inspector, was also relentlessly targeted on LinkedIn, receiving dozens of connection requests from apparent false personas featuring photographs of highly attractive women.

A more direct approach came from a self-described businessman claiming close ties to the Chinese government. The man persistently offered his assistance while praising China's generosity, prompting Wilson to cut off contact and report the profile.

These approaches mirror a recent Five Eyes intelligence warning about Beijing's aggressive use of professional networking sites to spy on or recruit targets.

Wilson believes the coordinated attempts to soften his findings—using women, a businessman, and a former officer—bear the hallmarks of the United Front Work Department, demonstrating a centralised CCP effort to influence UK intelligence.

His landmark report detailed deep links between organised criminal groups and the Chinese consulate, highlighting the exploitation of Chinese students and stressing that ordinary Chinese people remain the primary victims.

He warned that these criminal networks intentionally maintain a low profile to avoid police attention, raising fears that their vast smuggling infrastructure could be weaponized to bring in deadlier drugs like fentanyl if directed by Beijing.

Are we surprised?

[Emma Reilly @EmmaReillyTweet]

@UN_Valovaya @UNGeneva Did you explain that you hand names of British citizens to China? Or that you viciously retaliate against the British whistleblower, even withholding medical expenses to deter anyone else from proritising human rights? Or that you promoted the guilty party to Chief of Staff?
