At least 20 of the 30+ people charged w/sedition have not been activists or politicians.

Their “seditious” acts have mostly involved criticising authorities — the gov't, police & courts — through posters, stickers or on social media.

GovHK said free speech would be protected.

Sunday routine: Net outflow of #HongKong residents via @hkairport reached 79K this mth, w/ 873K total departures.

More HKers have decided to have holidays (naturally) & emigrate during holidays(from Dec22 case). We can confirm the trend by Aug when the influx occurs.

Lu Siwei defended one of the #HK12 captured by China on their way to Taiwan. Now he’s been arrested in Laos, almost certainly at the behest of China, while making his way to the US. He should be released immediately & allowed to proceed. #FreeLuSiwei

We are pleased that the UK called in the Chinese ambassador to formally register objection to the Hong Kong government’s arrest warrants & bounties on #HongKongers living abroad. Host governments must stand up to the CCP’s #TransnationalRepression.

The #EU signed a new agreement on #migration with #Tunisia, just as evidence of #humanrights abuses continue to mount.

This shows no lessons have been learnt from past shady deals & makes the EU complicit in the suffering that will inevitably result.

La Cour des comptes reproche à l'État son usage inapproprié des cabinets privés de conseil. Notamment pour remplir des missions relevant du "coeur de métier de l'administration", voire pour "intervenir dans le processus de décision".

The world needs to move to electric vehicles but at what cost?

Here's an excellent new film, featuring @amnesty's research linking EV brands to human rights abuses in cobalt mines. These brands must work with the DRC govt to find durable solutions.��

BREAKING: #HongKong national security police have taken away the parents and brother of activist Nathan Law for questioning, according to several local media outlets citing sources.

(Such pressure on families something we'd normally only see in the mainland.)

[Taiwan Freedom - 台灣自由 @TaiwanFreedom89]

I think about this often.

There is simply no responsible way to use cluster munition.

@Amnesty has documented how cluster munitions pose a grave threat to civilian lives, for a long time after conflict has ended.

The Biden Administration is expected to announce today that it will transfer #ClusterMunitions to #Ukraine.

I awoke this morning to news that a warrant has been issued by the #HongKong national security police for my arrest, with a HK$1 million bounty on my head. It intends to intimidate us & to stoke a mob mentality among CCP supporters

I will not back down. I will fight even harder.
