But while sitting staring at the screen I was scrolling through one of my daily quote programmes and found something much more apt, and eloquent than I could ever manage:

Thomas Jefferson on government in the 18th century:

“It is the group within society that claims for itself the exclusive right to rule everyone under a special set of laws that permit it to do to others what everyone else is rightly prohibited from doing, namely aggressing against person and property.”

Ring any bells?

Betrayal

Today, Che Che Che Tsang Changes, declared that: Protest is not in Hong Kong’s interest and the protestors must reflect.”  Very Politboro! I wonder if he was wearing a red tie at the time.  No doubt he’ll be advocating sending them to a labour camp in the country for this period of reflection, reflection being a well known euphemism for hard labour up North.

On top of a mainland security officer breaking the law by crossing our border illegally and dragging protestors back over, and the deporting of a dissident to China instead of to his country of origin, you’d have to say that the bland bow tie man is acting in Beijing’s interests and most definitely not in ours.

In fact Tsang, protests are in Hong Kong’s interests and you sir are a dupe, a sophist and an arse!
