#BREAKING: Pro-democracy activists Lester Shum and Tiffany Yuen and politicians Alvin Yeung, Dennis Kwok, Tat Cheng and Kwok Ka-ki are barred from contesting in the upcoming legislative election, local media report, and as many as 12 people are disqualified. #HongKongProtests
With Universal Mail-In Voting (not Absentee Voting, which is good), 2020 will be the most INACCURATE & FRAUDULENT Election in history. It will be a great embarrassment to the USA. Delay the Election until people can properly, securely and safely vote???
In Hongkong 20:50
A teenager protestor CHUN Hon Lam
had arrested by "The Office for Safeguarding National Security of the Central People's Government in the Hong Kong SAR "
Please help this kid.
Help Hongkong
Share please.😭
I dun wanna see his corpse.
Tony CHUNG Hon-lam, convener of disbanded student organization, Studentlocalism, was arrested in the name of “inciting subversion of state.” This is the first arrest of the Office for Safeguarding National Security of the CPG since it’s foundation on July 1. #NSL
#China is now arresting children/teenagers in #HongKong. They have just postponed their sham elections until next year.
#HK (& other places) may erupt at this rate. There is only so much that people can/will take from a corrupt machine before throwing themselves upon its gears.
Grainy photos are starting to emerge on Telegram purporting to show 19-year-old Tony Chung (鍾翰林), former convenor of HK pro-democracy group @studentlocalism being arrested by state security agents (de facto secret police) on suspicion of inciting secession. 1984 is here & now.
The Chinese Communist Party destroyed the autonomy of Hong Kong last night. Beijing must be denied the special privileges Hong Kong received and the officials responsible should be sanctioned.
The CCP just passed the #HongKong national security law. This is a horrible blow for the freedoms that Hongkongers were promised under the Basic Law. The House must pass @ChrisVanHollen's and my Hong Kong Autonomy Act ASAP to hold the CCP accountable.
Well, it’s still June 30th here at the end of the world. I get all my HK news when I wake up. Here’s hoping that when I wake up tomorrow, the news will be millions of people hit the streets in protest of the NatSec law.
It is 7/1 in HK, and this law is now in force. To put the matter beyond doubt:
I call for sanctions on the officials and leaders in both the HKSAR and in Beijing responsible for the erosion of Hong Kong's freedoms, and upon China for the infamies of Xinjiang.
#Sorrynotsorry
We cannot ignore continued threats to democratic values and the erosion of #HongKong autonomy by #CommunistChina. I am proud to cosponsor H.Res.974 declaring that the so-called national security law violates Hong Kong Basic Law and calling upon the world to #StandWithHongKong.
