My latest publication on NSL and tech neutrality 🙆🏻♀️ I looked into the existing case law in a report , 國安體制在香港:港區國安法實施三年觀察記, and beyond, and examine the tension between the national security regime (including SNSO and the CI bill) and tech neutrality.
Does the UK Government realise that all UK nationals on UK soil could be at risk? The NSL and SNSO have extraterritorial reach. Criticising the MEGA Embassy or posting Xi Jinping memes on X, all of that is illegal in Hong Kong.
Government plans to reintroduce extradition cooperation with Hong Kong are highly concerning. Why does the Government deem this reasonable when freedom of expression, political freedom and the rule of law in Hong Kong have been crushed by The National Security Law and the…
Lord Alton raises an important point. If the embassy application from China were not a political matter, why did the Prime Minister call in the application after speaking to Xi Jinping?
I raised risks posed by CCP to UK national interests & security. Is the planned £600m investment into intelligence & security a result of findings of the China audit? Has the Government called in the application for the Mega-Embassy because of phone call between PM & Xi Jinping?
Utterly absurd.
Here is the letter from the Home Office. In my view, reinstating extradition with Hong Kong is morally indefensible. The Chinese Communist Party has turned Hong Kong into a surveillance state where freedom of expression, rule of law, and basic civil liberties are…
“The safety and security of Hong Kongers in the UK is of the upmost importance."-- @DanJarvisMBE , 8 April 2025 Of so much importance that they now want to resume the extradition agreement with Hong Kong. 工党 = CLS 公司🙃
In my testimony on Hong Kong’s democracy and human rights before the @SenateForeign @SFRCdems’s Subcommittee yesterday, I highlighted the tightened #PrisonRules. The Hong Kong authorities now seeks total isolation of opposition figures rather than just arrest and prosecution.
Democracy dies not in thunder but in whispers. It dies when we look the other way. I challenged the @GOVUK to stop foreign influence over U.K. media @ipacglobal. In full: davidalton.net/2025/07/23/dem…

一夜あけてインタビュー受けました。よかったらご一読ください。 >有権者をマーケティングするとポピュリズムに走る。ポピュリズムは政党にとっては有利だけど国力を落とす。だからこそ、私が話してきたベーシックな土台の話をこれからもしっかりと逃げずに訴えていきたい。tokyo-sports.co.jp/articles/-/352…
TLDR 唔想睇中文就睇呢個 :D
On this, had many requests from #HongKong BN(O)s about the significance of @DavidAltonHL amendment, and what could happen next. Here's a epic explanation regarding the significance, timelines, and what you can do to support, for those following. TLDR: it's a serious proposal,…

Dear god, @PrincetonUPress is even proud of the visit to Xinjiang, issuing a press note that gushes about newfound appreciation for "the incredible power of Uyghur poetry," nevermind poet Tahir Hamut Izgil literally wrote a book called WAITING TO BE ARRESTED AT NIGHT.
The same for all Chinese online service. In no way they can protect data transferred given the Chinese regime.
Germany’s data protection commissioner has asked Apple and Google to remove Chinese AI start-up DeepSeek from their app stores because it illegally transfers users’ personal data to China. scmp.com/news/world/eur…
The activity was carried out by military personnel from the PRC embassy. London now wants to approve the biggest Chinese embassy in Europe.

Nobody serious about addressing transnational repression meets with Liu Jianchao.
Of all the disappointments today, hearing the Foreign Secretary speak about meeting the diabolical Liu Jianchao as if it were something to be proud of really floored me. Kudos @TomTugendhat for raising Liu’s disgraceful record of Transnational Repression.
Don’t take it from us — take it from Daron Acemoglu & James Robinson. The PRC is exporting extractive institutions. It’s an unsustainable model that’s dragging the world into a destructive clash of values, norms, and systems. It won’t save the economy.
This China audit is completely useless. Chinese-speaking researchers warned them for years — ignored. Now they want civil servants to learn Chinese, as if that solves it? Any researcher in the field will tell you Chinese isn’t the same as CCP language🙃
Support our Judicial Review fund to stop China’s mega-embassy: gofundme.com/f/stop-the-meg…
The UK betrayed Hongkongers in 1984. Again in 1997. Again in 2020. Not surpriesed that they plan to approve the mega-embassy and betray the 200,000 of us who fled here for safety again. ⚠️ Support the legal challenge: @RoyalMintEstate 🧷 gofund.me/b24c1bf4
Been asked a million times: "will 🇬🇧 allow the 🇨🇳 mega-embassy?" Answer? Yes. Everything about this process reeks of a foregone conclusion. It's a mistake, though, to think that the 🇬🇧's decision is final and this important campaign will end. Watch this space. 👀👀💪
