      Keir Starmer talked before House of Commons: I met President Xi and raised the case of Jimmy Lai.

      China: Duly noted your concern. Here comes 20 years of sentence.

      Meanwhile, after Canadian prime minister Mark Carney visited China, they dropped the death sentence of the meth smuggler Robert Schellenberg.

      That’s a life sentence for this old man who is 78. Hong Kong is now completely integrated into China politically. I am very happy I don’t live anywhere under Chinese jurisdiction anymore.

      Is he guilty of the charges regardless of what you think of their laws? If he really did in fact lobby foreign governments as described then he’s lucky to still be alive.

      For the US people openly protesting the „dictatorship“ you’re supposedly under in the US, this kind of thing, as well as what’s happened in Iran, is the kind of thing that happens to people who protest under real dictatorships/authoritarian regimes

      The article says he was using his news org to lobby foreign governments to place sanctions on China. Based on its history, i.e. the exploitation by British, French, etc., China does not appreciate calls for foreign governments to interfere in its domestic affairs. So not suprising of this tough sentence.

      Interesting how the past can shape the present.
