A protester surnamed Wong, who emigrated to the U.K. two months ago, said she had taken part in the protest with three generations of her family president.

"We want a Hong Kong with freedom, democracy and the rule of law like we had in the past," Tse told RFA. "Hong Kong people should have the final say in [how to run] the place, not the country next door."
Hong Kong's freedoms and democracy have been destroyed, and Uyghurs have suffered genocide, including the mass incarceration of Uyghurs in their homes for more than a month without food as part of CCP leader Xi Jinping's zero-COVID policy, she told the crowd.
