Real data is messy, but China's 2010-2016 organ donation data looks like it came from a math formula—nearly a perfect quadratic curve. Here's why that matters: the China Tribunal found that, for years, the #CCP has forcibly removed the organs of prisoners of conscience, with one, and probably the main, target being Falun Gong practitioners. Since the Chinese regime was doing all these organ transplants, they had to explain where they were coming from. This dubious "volunteer donor" data raises the important question: where were the organs really coming from?
Tiananmen Square : 37 years after its massacre of pro democracy protesters in Tiananmen Square, the CCP tries to air brush memory from public discourse. But we remember the atrocity and the heroism - symbolised by the courage and defiance of tank man. Later today, to mark the anniversary of Tiananmen, I will introduce my Private Members Bill in @UKHouseofLords on Genocide Determination- upholding the suffering Uyghur people of Xinjiang - and this afternoon I will open a three hour debate in @UKParliament on genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes- taking place all over world. @iguangcheng@BobFu4China@hk_watch@Stand_with_HK@thecfhk@Chloe_chc_25@ipacglobal
For 37 years, over 2,000 images taken by a Chinese state media photographer were hidden in a metal box, surviving brutal purges—until now.
These raw, powerful photos show the courage of the students, the scale of the protests, and the horror of what the Chinese Communist Party did.
Now, The @EpochTimes is making the photos public for the first time. [1/2]
Richard Gere has used his platform to stand with those whose voices are often ignored.
In conversation with HRF founder Thor Halvorssen at the Oslo Freedom Forum, Gere reflects on decades of human rights advocacy, including his support for the Tibetan people and their struggle to preserve their culture and identity, and why solidarity matters in the global effort to dismantle dictatorship.

Friends - today, in London, a procession and rally was organised, as usual, to mark World Falun Dafa Day, which is actually on Wednesday 13 May.
I have spoken at this event several times in previous years. Today I was unable to be there in person. But I sent the following message, which was read out at the press conference and rally, and which I share now:
---
Dear Friends:
It is a privilege once again to be invited to address this important gathering in London to mark World Falun Dafa Day.
I have had this honour each year for many years, and most years I have been able to be with you in person. This year, I am truly sorry that I am not able to be with you in person – but please be assured I am with you in spirit.
I applaud the vibrant, joyful way in which you celebrate your culture and beliefs and share them with the wider community.
The array of colour, beauty and art that always epitomises your celebration of this day during your parade and rally is inspirational.
And your values – of “Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance” – are values truly to celebrate.
For these are values not only of Falun Gong practitioners. They are my values as a Christian. They are the values of friends of other religions. They are universal values. They are the values of humanity.
So as we celebrate World Falun Dafa Day, we not only celebrate one particular community or culture – although we do that with respect – but we also celebrate the beauty, diversity, and values of humanity.
Yet today is not only a day of celebration. It is also an occasion where we remember – and draw the world’s attention to – the persecution that continues right now in China.
The persecution of Falun Gong practitioners in China breaks my heart and weighs on my conscience every day.
I have spent my whole adult life championing freedom of thought, conscience, religion or belief for everyone, everywhere, no exceptions.
This is a right for every human being, set out in Article 18 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights is a right for everyone, everywhere, no exceptions.
This right is not about protecting religions or institutions. It is, instead, a basic right that protects human beings and every human person’s right to choose, change, practise and share, peacefully, a religion or belief of their choice.
Article 18 protects the right of everyone – followers of every faith and of no faith. It protects the right to believe and the right not to believe. And it is a right I will always defend.
Throughout my life I have advocated not only for my own fellow Christians around the world who are persecuted – and my Christian brothers and sisters face severe persecution in too many places, including in China – but also for Muslims, such as the Rohingyas in Myanmar and the Uyghurs in China, for communities such as the Ahmadiyya persecuted by fellow Muslims, for Tibetan Buddhists, for Baha’is, and for atheists. And yes, absolutely, for the right of Falun Gong practitioners to practice your beliefs in peace and freedom.
I have fought for the fundamental human right for freedom of religion or belief for everyone, everywhere, no exceptions.
That is why I stand with Falun Gong. I want every person who wishes to practice Falun Dafa to be free to do so.
Falun Gong practitioners in China have endured the most brutal, horrific repression for too long. Over the past decade I have stood with you – organising or speaking in or attending hearings in Parliament, writing op-eds, speaking at rallies and in media interviews.
I was privileged to play a small part in helping to spark the independent China Tribunal into forced organ harvesting chaired by distinguished British barrister Sir Geoffrey Nice KC seven years ago. That tribunal judgment helped change the narrative about forced organ harvesting, and helped begin to open the mindsets of many to this hitherto forgotten horror.
We are living in profoundly challenging times in the world. Wars, conflicts, economic challenges, the threat of authoritarianism, the threat of transnational repression.
Only two weeks ago, I experienced – once again – transnational repression on my very doorstep. I opened the door of my home early one morning, to get on my bicycle to go swimming, and a Chinese woman appeared suddenly on the pavement, pointing her phone at me and taking multiple photographs. I was caught off guard. I did not expect the Chinese Communist Party or its agents to be on my street in a quiet London suburb waiting for me as I began my day.
That invasion of privacy, that intrusion into my basic freedoms in my own country, is unacceptable, but it is just a fraction of what many of your community and other diaspora communities – Hong Kongers, Uyghurs, Tibetans, Chinese dissidents – face, and nothing compared with the persecution underway in China.
So in these dark and troubling times, let me say this.
The world needs truthfulness more than ever.
The world needs compassion more than ever.
And the world needs forbearance more than ever.
Those are values around which all people of humanity can unite and work for freedom, democracy, human rights, justice and peace.
One day we will all celebrate World Falun Dafa day freely on the streets of China.
But for today, as you celebrate on the streets of London, I stand with you in spirit and solidarity.
From AI porn to economic threats and sanctions. We’ve seen it all.
A tour of the CCP’s coercive tactics against @ipacglobal, given to @OurCommons Human Rights Committee hearing on transnational repression last night.
Forced organ harvesting in China is not a faraway atrocity. It's still happening today, and the West is in many ways unwittingly—or wittingly—complicit.
We train their transplant surgeons. We legitimize their system at international conferences. And we supply a lot of the biotech and devices that make this macabre industry possible.
It’s time to cut all ties to China’s transplant system.
Today was a whirlwind day of interviews and talks, ending with a packed event at @EpochTimes Irvine office with @JoshJPhilipp and @SiyamakKhorrami.
I am so grateful to the outpouring of interest and support in this extremely difficult but vital issue.
Thank you to everyone who came out tonight, and please keep spreading the word so we can end this atrocity.
Join hundreds in the Falun Gong community as they take to the streets of NYC to commemorate a historic moment of nonviolent protest for religious freedom.
The grand parade honors the 27th anniversary of the peaceful appeal by 10,000 practitioners at the Zhongnanhai government offices on April 25, 1999.
Following repeated executions of male opponents of the barbaric Iranian regime, it is now reported that a group of female political prisoners are to be executed by hanging.
They are:
Bita Hemmati
Ghazal Ghalandari
Golnaz Naraghi
Venus Hossein Nejad
Panah Movahedi
Ensieh Nejati
Mahboubeh Shabani
Diana Taher Abadi
The group is reported to include two teenagers.
Their crime?
To speak out and protest against the regime’s atrocities and to demand freedom and democracy.
In a letter to me, Foreign Office Minister @JennyChapman describes the use of executions as “abhorrent.” @UKHouseofLords
Foreign Secretary @YvetteCooperMP should urgently condemn this barbarism at the UN Security Council @sec_council
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

Good Friday 2026 - Chinese Christians persecuted by the CCP, paying a heavy price for their faith- along with Uyghur Muslims, Tibetan Buddhists and Falun Gong practitioners.
FEB. 27
Flushing, Queens.
A volunteer was struck from behind while distributing materials exposing the persecution of Falun Gong in China.
She was later hospitalized for evaluation as the attacker fled the scene.
Recent attacks reflect a broader pattern of harassment and intimidation linked to the CCP's overseas influence and transnational repression.
