1/ The national security law is the end of Hong Kong’s autonomy and freedoms since Beijing is imposing an authoritarian legal system upon the city’s liberal common law system. Under this draconian law, China reserves its exclusive powers.pic.twitter.com/S1DUQT4aFH
2/ It overrode the local courts’ interpretation and rulings, supervise HKgov’s policing, collect intelligence and intervene in Hong Kong affairs directly. Beyond any doubt, the law will punch a hole in the city’s independent judicial system.
3/ When Beijing is sinking its claws over the city, Hongkong protestors are calling for a withdrawal of this evil law to safeguard Hong Kong’s autonomy and liberties, protect the safety of civil society and business community in the city.
4/ We wish to ensure our next generations can continue to live in freedom, but not in fear. With the city’s freedoms on the brink of collapse, we are defending our slight glimmers of hope for the city’s liberty with our bare hands.
5/ The forthcoming legislative election is a vital testing ground for the scope of China’s authoritarianism over this island, since Beijing has already paved ways to disqualify pro-democracy runners that do not support the national security law.
6/ Fighting for a majority in the legislative council, we are not just blocking Beijing’s tyrannical interference through the legislative process, but also showing our determination to stand up against the regime’ reign of terror, especially in the era of autocratic expansion.
7/ In this David vs Goliath battle, I call upon the world to safeguard the city’s vanishing liberty and urge China to withdraw this sweeping law. This is not just a fight for HK, but also a fight for the universal democratic values that democracies all cherish.
