Sir Patrick Vallance confirms to MP's that outdoor protests are 'low risk'
Sir Patrick Vallance, the UK's chief scientific adviser, told MPs earlier this month that protests elsewhere had not resulted in a spike in infections and that outdoor gatherings were safer than indoors, though not risk free.
He said: "It is…

Yes. And most of them were either people who didn’t know what they were signing, signed in exchange for masks or other freebies or both. I witnessed it.
I doubt many signed up due to heartfelt support of this breach of covenant. I doubt even more that Mr Tam could get 2m HKers to March in support of these proposals. But there’s a good chance we’d get those sorts of numbers out to oppose them.

Over 2m sign up for electoral reform: Tam Yiu-chung
A campaign in support of Beijing's electoral overhaul for Hong Kong says it has received nearly 2.4 million signatures backing the national legislature's move. The convenor of the campaign, Tam Yiu-chung, said they didn't count overseas signatures or those who put their names down repeatedly. Tam, the only Hong Kong delegate to the National People's Congress Standing Committee, said the signatures represented the views of a fairly large number of people in the SAR. He said getting more than two million people to sign in around 10 days was no small feat.

We would like to think that our modern society would help safeguard #humanrights. However,2021 has not been a glorious year for humanity. #CCP continues to enslave #Uyghurs, eliminates the original language of #mongolian, abuses #HKers freedom of speech and destroys #TheRuleOfLaw. Meanwhile, military coup in #Myanmar has turned the country into hell.
Worst of all, despite the lip service the free countries provided, #EU led by #German continues to make trade deals with #China.
#US continues to allow apps run by CCP owns corporates to steal personal data from their own citizens; letting CCP espionage disguise as Confucius Institute in its own universities to steal all the intellectual properties.
Giant tech monopolies all help #CCPChina to censor anything that mention about #humanrights, #freedom or #justice.
The #worldwiderallyforfreedom shows how angry people are. Let this protest be a start. More and more people will commit themselves to vote out those politicians who say one thing and act as another out and boycott those companies who do not fulfill their corporates duties.

' Electoral changes enhance the quality of democracy'
Chief Secretary Matthew Cheung has rejected criticism of Beijing's overhaul of Hong Kong's electoral system, saying the changes will improve political participation and make the SAR more democratic.
...
Writing on his blog on Sunday, the city's number two official said the fact that both Legco and the election committee would increase in size shows Beijing's determination and sincerity in expanding the scope of democratic elections here.
Cheung claimed the reforms could ensure that all sectors of society are fully represented in the governing structure, and that there would be balanced participation in politics in a broadly representative system.
While critics have called the overhaul a regression in Hong Kong’s democratic development, the minister argued that’s simply not the case.
He stressed the changes would instead “enhance the quality of democracy here" and improve Hong Kong's governing efficiency.

The moment #NationalSecurityLaw established in #HongKong, it also marked the end of #RuleOfLaw. The ambitious of the law has caused a lot of people in jail only because of the words they have said or protest slogans printed on personal properties. The logic behind the law can also be changed anytime the government wants according to their convenience.
For a foreign judge to stay at the High Court is in a way giving the legitimacy of the law and empower the government to enforce the law ignoring pressure from other countries. Although leaving the High Court would not help the situation, but it can uncover the mask of this government and force herself that it is a dictator government similar to the Nazi in WW2.

Andy Li (one of the #12HKYouths) is charged with collusion with foreign forces and few more offences.
These charges must be dropped. Andy Li has done nothing wrong and he is facing grave injustice.
