China has effectively ripped up the international treaty that should have given Hong Kong a degree of autonomy after its handover from Britain.
He has been given 15 months for lighting a candle at a vigil remembering the victims of the Tiananmen Square massacre when the Chinese communist regime murdered hundreds of unarmed innocent civilians. A British citizen with a British passport has been seized and held against his will for political reasons and yet the UK government has been curiously reluctant to speak out or warn its own investors about the steady dismantlement of Hong Kong's rule of law.The Sunak government's response then will be a key test of its willingness to protect subjects wherever they are and defend the values and principles it claims to hold dear.
"A Nelson Mandela-type character behind bars for speaking truth to power, they need to let the Hong Kong authorities know they will not continue to have business as usual.
This is Jimmy Lai photo not his son!
He’s no Hong Kong he’s only 28
28?
No way he's 28
not like there was a treaty with the UK about Hong Kong or anything...
Is this just part of the New world order for them not to speak up. Don't say anything bad about your friends ?
A lot of our cheap goods and other tat comes from China so the UK Government are hardly likely to denounce China are they.
he obviously didnt donate to the tory party
Well the UK public denounce China even if the government doesn't
