Flat white with an extra shot 💉 #vaccinated

@kevinkfyam Hi Kevin, I'm unable to DM you, but are you able to get in touch? I'm a reporter with 10 News and keen to speak with you about this if possible.

OBSERVATIONS ON THE SENTENCING IN THE “HONG KONG 47” CASE 1. All of these sentences will, in practice, have to be served in full with no early parole. This is a result of changes under the “Article 23” legislation earlier this year. 2. Every single one of these sentences is a travesty in itself. But the one that really topped it all was the Gordon Ng sentence (and not just because he’s a fellow Australian): 7 years and 3 months for being a bit player in the process, doing nothing more than running a Facebook page that encourages people to vote in an informal process? Really? 3. I reiterate: these people have been convicted and jailed for (a) trying to work within the #HongKong Basic Law process for dealing with legislative deadlocks over government budgets; and (b) doing what politicians in democracies routinely do (threatening to filibuster budgets and other laws to try and gain a particular political or policy outcome). 4. Now personally: I am not OK today. Benny Tai was the co-author of my first academic article over 20 years ago before either of us were activists. Alvin Yeung used to live near me. Claudia Mo was active in my neighbourhood as a politician. Lam Cheuk-ting and Helena Wong were people I campaigned for in the past. Leung Kwok-hung and I shared a love for whisky. I can go on and on. These people were friends and comrades. This is not just political - it’s personal for the defendants, their families and their friends. For all the inconveniences and stresses of a bounty over my head, it does not begin to compare with those who are languishing in prison for doing things that would be considered normal in free societies.
