#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?"

Pro-CCP organisation found in UK BNO policy Taskforce, triggering safety concerns for Hongkongers

British government's BNO policy consultation taskforce includes prominent members of the London China Town Chinese Association, says Hongkongers in Britain, a pro-democracy advocacy group for newcomers from Hong Kong.

The Chinese Association had pledged support to the implementation of National Security Law in Hong Kong, as well as having only the “patriots to rule Hong Kong.”

Hongkongers in Britain worried that involvement of pro-CCP organization members in these policies could cause safety concerns to Hong Kong people in the UK, many of whom had recently immigrated to the UK on their British Nationals Overseas (BNO) passports. The advocacy group urged the British government to prohibit those pro-CCP organizations from entering official BNO policy committees.

The London China Town Chinese Association, however, did not respond to media inquiry on this matter.

Hongkongers in Britain's website noted that Consultation Taskforce was formed by the Ministry of Housing, Communities, and Local Government to tackle BNO-related policies. The Taskforce does not have representatives from new Hong Kong immigrants, but does include members of the pro-CCP Chinese Association.
