Dear HK and Taiwan friends. Please help us to collect all links on pro-Russian channels, spreading fakes from China. Social media accounts first of all. Not state media. DM.
I don’t think Hong Kong 🇭🇰 will mind us claiming a part of Siobhán Haughey’s stunning performance and silver medal in #Tokyo2020
I spoke earlier to Seán to offer congratulations. He and the wider family circle are justifiably over the moon and very very proud. #Olympics
Today RSF staged parallel “funeral protests” outside the Chinese embassies in Paris & Berlin following the closure of #AppleDaily, warning that without concrete action by democracies, the death of press freedom in #HongKong could follow.

#BREAKING: 15 of the 47 defendents were granted bail. Yet, they were back to remand as the Secretary of Justice immediately applied for appeal against the bail decision. They will go to High Court within 48 hours.
47 charged today under the national security law for 'inciting subversion', for organizing or participating in the July primary. Staggering and devastating for Hong Kong. Our story up now on @washingtonpost with @TMclaughlin3@theodorayuhk

#BREAKING:As more among the 55 arrestees are being requested to report on Sunday, it is suspected that they will be detained at police stations overnight and be sent to court directly on Monday morning.

#HongKong's pan-dem's efforts to win #LegCo elections back in 2020 are now prosecuted as "conspiring to subvert state power". Brazen cynicism. Completely in violation of Hong Kong Basic Law. Violates ICCPR signed by Hong Kong in 1998. #CCP dictatorship.

47 people charged for organising a legitimate election in #HongKong. Their lives will never be the same. Will this latest abomination draw more than “serious concern” from our diplomatic service? 😡
Charges against 47 pro-democrat is of great concern to #EU. These make clear that legitimate political pluralism will no longer be tolerated in #HongKong. We urge authorities to abide by their commitments to fundamental #freedoms and the rule of law, as per the #BL and #ICCPR
Owen Chow, one of the 55 pro-democracy figures arrested with national security law for participating in the primary, was arrested again for rioting, relating to July 1, 2019 storming of Legislative Council. He’s also a main activist helping the families of the detained HK12.
#HongKong you need to get back on Twitter.
It shapes reporting and influences politicians. We wouldn't have got the BN(O) policy without it.
Yes, it's not a perfect platform, but you have to work with the tools you've got.
