After the last teargas attack, police left and the protesters they attacked for an hour and a half to prevent them from occupying the streets of Central are now flooding back.pic.twitter.com/3rJIiWKNql
Some of the ordnance police just fired at us on Pedder St in Central. Teargas canister, sponge grenades shot from rifles. The expiry dates of the teargas canisters have all been rubbed out in recent weeks.pic.twitter.com/IWOdCzzvYU
Looking up Pedder St now from Connaught Rd- protesters as far as the eye can see. It’s beautiful: office workers, young people, all kinds of ordinary citizens have just stood down the police. They may not attack us again until evening.pic.twitter.com/gPBkTorB10
.@ray_slowbeat @loktinau @ChuHoiDick Kwok Ka-ki, Gary Fan, Lam Cheuk-ting & Leung Yiu-chung: We’re all with you at your initial trial hearing, 2:30 Eastern Magistrates’ Court. Wanted to be there but we’ve just taken over Central & must fight to keep it. Stand strong! #WeShallWin
Thousands are now marching east on Connaught Rd from Pedder St. If you ever wanted to join the revolution but haven’t yet, the time is now.pic.twitter.com/cymIlaYeyp
We got to near PLA Garrison HQ Central & then, in typical #BeWater fashion, turned around and headed back west toward Central.pic.twitter.com/TvV00WuN3b

Just got news of the old man set on fire in Ma On Shan, presumably by a protester. I can’t emphasise enough: it’s entirely unacceptable to attack civilians, let alone as gruesomely as this. If we say the police must pay for their crimes, we must too. I pray for the victim.
Apparently an image of the man after he was set on fire. It’s said he has 2nd degree burns to 30% of his body. Every protester I talk to strongly condemns the attack on him. No more attacks on civilians!pic.twitter.com/rBUuEHTmmr
Police now advancing eastward from Sheung Wan to Central on Des Voeux Rd & shooting teargas at a mostly empty street. Most protesters have gotten the warning & cleared out.pic.twitter.com/aiZ86IQjXt
A Bank of China branch is on fire near where the police are moving toward Central on Des Voeux Rd.pic.twitter.com/VKK02pMc7p
For all of the Bank of China branches ‘renovated’ around #HK, this is the first time I’ve seen the old BoC HQ building spraypainted, windows broken.pic.twitter.com/EtFX9GMyCI
The exodus from Central to Admiralty. I thought police would wait til evening to attack us, but after lunch, numbers dropped as people returned to work. At a crucial moment to escalate, #HK people blinked. Now we’re on the run again.pic.twitter.com/WaClduenKR

In the 2nd major crackdown on pro-democracy leaders since protests began, 7 Legco members appeared in court to face charges of violating Legco’s Powers & Privileges Ordinance. Released on bail. Next hearing: Jan 13https://news.rthk.hk/rthk/en/component/k2/1491345-20191111.htm?spTabChangeable=0 …
Important context: court threw out govt case against Long Hair on grounds Legco members couldn’t be tried under the Ordinance as it was to protect Legco members from non-members. Now govt’s back at it again, 7 more times!
20 pro-democracy Legco members have faced 30 trials since #UmbrellaMovement, out of about 28 total. Imagine a place where govt has put 2/3 of the parliamentary opposition on trial. That place is #HK. No wonder people protest.
