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.”
Thanks to @crikey_news for publishing an extract from my new @MonashPub short book ‘Our National Crisis: Violence against Women and Children’. Here I detail some of the different forms of abuse experience by family violence victim-survivors.
