Great to see this support coming thru in the UK #FreeJimmyLai

[#FreeJimmyLai @SupportJimmyLai]

Responding to #PMQs today, & @Keir_Starmer’s call for China to “immediately release” #JimmyLai, Sebastien Lai said:

“I am grateful to hear the Prime Minister call for my father’s immediate release.

My father will be 77 soon, he has spent close to 4 years in solitary confinement in a maximum security prison for peacefully campaigning for democracy in Hong Kong. As you can expect his health has deteriorated by a lot. I would ask our Prime Minister to put word to action, to save my father’s life.”
