China's Standing Committee of the NPC Disqualifies Four Pro-Democracy Legislators From Office in Hong Kong

China-owned Xinhua News Agency reports that the PRC's Standing Committee of the National People's Congress has passed a motion which states legislators who "support or spread opinions related to Hong Kong Independence, refused to recognise national sovereignty, colluding with foreign influences to sway HKSARG affairs, or performing acts that threatens national security" would not be found conforming the legal requirements of upholding the Basic Law and their allegiance for legislators in Hong Kong, and thus would be "disqualified immediately after such claims were recognised by the law". This motion also applies for those who were disqualified for the following Legislative Council election originally scheduled for this September.

The HKSAR government then immediately released a statement announcing that, as per the Standing Committee's decision, Alvin Yeung Ngok-kiu, Dennis Kwok Wing-hang and Kwok Ka-ki of the Civic Party, and Kenneth Leung Kai-cheong of The Professionals Guild were to be disqualified immediately from their roles as legislators. The government has also stated that the decision would soon be gazetted.
