Voter registration ended on May 2
The 2020 voter registration period ended on May 2, and the change of voter registration information has ended on the 2 April. In the past months, the 'yellow' pro-democracy camp and 'blue' pro-establishment camp had been mobilizing new voters to register.
The Civilian Volunteer Team was informed that there are currently over a thousand registrations in the catering industry had been bounced back and required re-submission of information. Many of the letters requesting replacement certificates did not specify the requirements and the format was irregular. In addition, the government arrangement for civil servants to work from home has worried voters that this may hinder the ability of 'yellow' pro-protesr shops to successfully register as a constituent voter.

Pro-democracy legislator Dennis Kwok, vice-chairperson of the House Committee, announces:
1) He has the right to chair the House Committee meetings. Starry Lee's chairing of the meeting as the "former chairperson" and a candidate for the role of "chairperson" is illegal and violates the house rules of the Legislative Council.
2) Denounces pro-Beijing legislator Aron Kwok's physical assault on pro-democracy legislator Ray Chan by dragging him across the chamber.
3) He has instructed security to expel Starry Lee from the chamber, but security did not follow his instructions, and instead only followed Lee's orders.
4) The expelled pro-democracy legislators can now re-enter the chamber.

Last Pro-Democracy Lawmaker Gone
1703 | #LegCo
Following the order of Beijing loyalist Starry Lee, the Council's security guards removed Fernando Cheung, the last pro-democracy lawmaker in the chamber.
Previously, the security team ignored the request made by the committee chairperson Dennis Kwok, a barrister of the pro-democracy front, concerning the removal of Starry Lee who has allegedly abused her power in the legislature.

Man Accused of Possessing Poison Has Prosecution Withdrawn, Jeremy Tam Censures Police Arbitrary Arrests
After protestors occupied the Legislative Council building on July 1 last year, police officers intercepted multiple vans near Sun Yat Sen Memorial Park, and arrested a van driver for "Possession of Part I Poison" and "Possession of Instrument Fit for Unlawful Purpose".
Legislative Councillor Jeremy Tam Man-ho, who assisted the arrested driver, said that the driver was only found with asthma medication, stating that he "would have believed that this was some Golden Triangle drug smuggling case if one was not informed about it".
After he was notified that the driver had his prosecution withdrawn due to lack of evidence, Tam censured the police for conducting indiscriminate and arbitrary arrests, stating that the police "often frame Hongkongers", and noted the irony of the officers from the Regional Anti-Triad Unit, whose possession of methamphetamine made headlines in early May. He remarked, "The true drug smugglers may be the Regional Anti-Triad Unit who claims to be 'Serving Hong Kong with Honour, Duty and Loyalty'".

From #NathanLaw's Facebook:
On 1 July 2019, protestors went inside the #LegCo and unfurled the banner reading “There is no rioter, only tyranny”. They declared a manifesto and reiterated the 5 demands.
Today, Andrew Leung disqualified Dennis Kwok; Chan Kin-Bor removed most pro-democracy lawmakers; Starry Lee was elected as the House Committee chairperson with 40:0 votes.
To quote from the #July1 manifesto: “The society might criticise us. Yet, who is behind the social divide? Who causes public discontent? What did Hong Kong do? Why are Hongkongers persecuted like this?"
Violence comes from tyranny. Under the CCP's oppression, Hongkongers resist, fight for their future and take back their legislature. The LegCo on July 1 represented the people.
After that day, the LegCo spent millions to redo the chamber, costing Hong Kong’s future. I'd rather have a LegCo filled with graffiti and manifesto, instead of glamour but evil deeds. Structural violence is way more destructive than the so-called street violence.
