U.K. Plans Citizenship for Hong Kong Residents in Row with China

Personally, I think it's well past time that China was forced to reconsider it's policies on HK. And also on:

* Food Hygiene and pandemics

* Rounding up minorities and religious groups

* Democracy

* Tibet and Taiwan

* Clashes with India

* Support for North Korea

The idea that 7m people should move out of Hong Kong because their requests for basic human rights is inconvenient to the CCP is frankly insane.

I hope it's not a defeatist question? Certainly things could be done.

This is why the Trump doctrine is what should be done about it. I hope the EU follows suit.
