❗️Huge rebuke to Beijing as 14 countries reaffirm support for the ruling which dismissed China’s ludicrous claims over the South China Sea.
You can confidently predict that the response will demonstrate clearly why the CCP under Xi is a threat to global stability.
Journalist Ronson Chan has been released from prison in #HongKong after serving his sentence for “obstructing police” while reporting. He’s the first head of @HKJA_Official to be imprisoned—a clear sign of the drastic deterioration of #PressFreedom in HK.

The Prison Letters of Jimmy Lai.
Sunday Times journalist @domhauschild
has today published deeply moving letters from Jimmy Lai to his children, Claire and Sebastien. Jimmy, a British citizen, remains incarcerated in solitary confinement in the CCP’s Hong Kong Stanley Prison. The Sunday Times reports that he has been denied “medicine for his diabetes, he has dramatically lost weight, his teeth have begun rotting and his fingernails are falling off.” During a meeting with Foreign Secretary
@YvetteCooperMP this week I again referred to his case. Read Jimmy’s prison letters here https://t.co/mdGxGJ5PA7 #FreeJimmyLai

The reason why HongKongers can’t give up. Today, April 4(404), some of us will protest at London’s HKETO, because it s a 404 error for this office to keep its diplomatic privileges, after Hong Kong lost its autonomy and freedom completely. !Shut down HKETO!
As we prepare to celebrate #Easter, our co-founder and Chair @benedictrogers has written this message of hope for those in jail or under persecution in #HongKong and beyond 👇
🗣️ "I can't think of another place in the world that has seen its freedoms so quickly and so thoroughly snuffed out in the last century" - Mark Clifford, biographer and friend of Jimmy Lai.
The 78-year-old British citizen was jailed for 20 years after he was found guilty of national security offences last December.

//Given Lai’s deteriorating health, time is running out for action. The UK can safeguard this agreement by placing the argument for Lai’s release at the heart of UK-China relations and elevating his case to a matter of national importance.//
3/4 #JimmyLai was convicted in #HongKong’s High Court on one charge of conspiracy to publish seditious materials and two charges under the National Security Law for conspiracy to collude with foreign forces. The charges themselves tell the story:
Journalism became sedition.
Advocacy became collusion.
Ordinary civic engagement was transformed into a national security crime.

The threat from #China to #Taiwan is not only military. It is in espionage, influence, misinformation, infiltration, cyber warfare, transnational repression, and a host of other ways.
The free world must #StandWithTaiwan against all these threats - in 2026 and beyond

The sham trial of Hong Kong’s courageous Jimmy Lai has been worthy of Stalin & Mao Zedong - whose orchestrated show trials were spectacles used to eliminate enemies, to spread terror, and to inculcate fear. This sick theatre has nothing to do with justice. All of us who know Jimmy Lai admire his integrity and honesty. His crime is to believe in democracy and freedom. When CCP dictatorship ends, Jimmy Lai’s heroic defence of freedom will long be remembered and celebrated. Totalitarian kangaroo courts and show trials will be consigned to the dustbin of history. The great people of Hong Kong and China will then have a political and judicial system which upholds justice and human rights rather than systematically oppressing them. @caoilfhionnanna@HelenaKennedyKC@SupportJimmyLai
As Jimmy Lai, who has been imprisoned for over 1,800 days, once again spends his birthday in solitary confinement in #HongKong today, our Chair @benedictrogers has written this message of solidarity 👇
