One Old Woman Holding A Yellow Umbrella Paint With Union Jack Flag In Hong Kong

[ChingWan23]

Few days ago, an old woman on her own holding a yellow umbrella paint with union jack flag in Hong Kong. Just one old woman and on her own, but she got arrest because of unlawful gathering. What is wrong?

Can UK take Hong Kong back?

[davebro]

I think the answer to that would be a big fat NO!

[barry1010]

No, not unless we want a war with China. It ain't going to happen. We need China for the batteries for our electric cars

I think what is happening in Hong Kong is very sad, but inevitable once we had to hand it back to China.
That brave old lady (yes, I do think 66 is old) knew the consequences of her actions, but wanted to make her point. That’s what activists do.

Can we take Hong Kong back? Confucius he say..’you try it, and we give you big slap’.

I'm not sure how one person can "assemble", but I don't speak Mandarin.

I know that it's Wong - it wasn't Fat Peng, peter p, but Margaret Thatcher's gaffe. If she had held out and gone for a Monaco relationship with France, she may have got it...the whole thing being that HK and Macau in this form of model may have persuaded the Taiwanese to come back to the mother fold - as in we are independent economies and politics but China (read France for Monaco) looks after us defensively.

//If NJ is going to give a legal opinion - he MUST get it right
( not misleadingly wrong)//

NJ is not giving a legal opinion. He’s just telling it how it is. Hong Kong is part of China. When it was handed over to the Chinese in 1997 the treaty provided that HK would operate as a “Special Administrative Region” under a “One Country, Two Systems” principle. The Chinese so-called “Socialist” system would not be imposed and the capitalist system on which HK operated would be allowed to continue for fifty years, with Hong Kong citizens’ way of life remaining unchanged for that period. The Chinese are simply getting ahead of the game.

I don’t think you’ve researched this too well!
