#UK Chinese Group Condemns Pro-democracy rally in London and Calls for "response actions"; Netizens mock: Why don’t you go back to China?
UK Hongkonger group "Justitia Hong Kong" organized "Mourning Assembly for the Battles of Chinese University of HK and HK Polytechnic University" rally in London on 12 December, 2020. Over 200 people attended the rally.
A Chinese group in Manchester, "Manchester Chinatown Business Association", however, wrote on their Facebook page, alleging that the London rally was organized by a group of "junk youth-Hong Kong disruptors", and solicited opinions on how to "deal with these people".
The facebook page "Hongkongers in Britain" then released a statement, saying that it is paying attention to the statement made by the Chinese group which aimed to incite hatred and ignored the value of democracy in Britain.
"Manchester Chinatown Business Association" later deleted the post and comments.
"Manchester Chinatown Business Association" issued a bilingual post in Chinese and English on December 16, 2020, alleging the legal rally in London as a group of "anti-Hong Kong disruptors", stating that "they will come to Manchester sooner or later", accusing the participants for disregarding the epidemic risks and safety of others.
The post also called the rally participants "selfish", and asking for members and residents' opinions on "how to deal with these people", "welcome or not welcome". The post was attached with the video of the rally in London on December 12, 2020.
Netizens mocked the Chinese group in the UK, "Why don’t you go back to China?"
