Hong Kong police fire water cannon at crowds protesting new security law

Crowds spilling out into the streets chanted "resist till the end" and "Hong Kong independence".

But critics fear it will crush the freedoms that are seen as key to Hong Kong's success as a financial centre. Police held up a public announcement banner showing a warning to protesters in Causeway Bay before the handover march. On July 1 last year, hundreds of protesters stormed and vandalised the city's legislature to protest against a now-scrapped bill that would have allowed extraditions to mainland China.

China’s new national security law bans secession, terrorism, and “foreign interference,” essentially making Hong Kong just like mainland China, where criticism against the government and the Chinese Communist Party is forbidden.

Hong Kong done and dusted.

It is too dangerous to visit HK anymore after the CCPSecurityLaw enact. Freedom, human rights and the promised One Country, Two System is dead right now. AntiChinazi FightForFreedom

The opinio of HK is crystal clear. We do not support the controversial NationalSecurityLaw.

They could come up a million reasons to protest, but we all know the real reason is China got them out of slavery in 1997.

No more firebombing, vandalism, killing cleaners with bricks and setting alight those who disagree. Great, good work HK police.

Fuck British. It is all their fault. Their colonisation idea made Hong Kong people mentally ill. All western countries including Japan who killed in WWII need to pay compensation to their colonial countries. racism

This is the voice of Hong Kong people. 🖐🏼☝🏼 bewater

the western world isn’t happy about the end of hongkong’s colonial period. we took their land and taught their kids to hate them. I guess that’s why we are so cautious about foreign infiltration.

Hongkongers came out of the street to show the world that even the hardest law won't stop them from fighting for freedom.

HK's 'new security law' shares striking features with the 'authoritarian plandemic rules', both seem to advance anti-democratic governance, the former directly while the latter indirectly, using a false pretence of an exaggerated viral 'outbreak threat'. Appalling conduct!

Hong Kong is always a police state.😔 HKPoliceState StandWithHongKong

'The extradition law on steroids': China taking revenge on Hong Kong a year after defiant protestsAlmost one year to the day when thousands of young protesters smashed their way into Hong Kong's local government building over plans for closer legal integration with mainland China, Beijing is moving to finalise a law far more expansive and restrictive, writes China correspondent Bill Birtles. Australia is obsessed with China... our politicians & media are 'stalkers' wierdly obsessed with someone else's country. We interfere in China and then 'sook' like children if they interfere here.. the Australian national psyche needs to 'get some help' and to grow up. Sadly but true, Hong Kong is going to be destroyed completely by Chinese Community Party Riot and violence HK police, they'll pay later😠

Australia joins dozens of Western countries urging China to scrap Hong Kong security lawBritain and some two dozen Western countries including Australia have urged China to reconsider its new national security law for Hong Kong, saying Beijing must preserve the right to assembly and free press in the former British colony. Us Blackfellas are Western like the foreign Western migrants and their descendants still here like PM ScoMo? Don't speak for us ! In the 1930s, the world had a chance to stop Hitler but they watched things wind up from afar until it was too late. Getting the same vibe here. Now's the time for the rest of the world to stand up. China is as powerful as it is because the rest of the world allow them to be. Do you really believe China, with all its arrogance, is going to listen? We need to get real. Take back all the assets that were mistakenly sold to Chinese nationals, freeze financial accounts, and the country’s involved to reduce trade to become less dependent. Watch China then
