China’s president has led celebrations to mark the twenty fifth anniversary for the reason that UK handed over Hong Kong to China.
Surrounded by an enormous safety presence, Xi Jinping used the event to assert the previous colony has ‘risen from the ashes’.
However the UK authorities says there was a gradual erosion of political and civil rights since Beijing tightened its management of the territory in 2019, with a brutal crackdown on pro-democracy protests.

Fake news, childish bs.
China never broke their words.
There was no democracy until 1997 China put in one country two system, it was a China invention. China did promised to protect UK businesses
And they are still do. Hk Chinese has not right in hk until 1997. This is a fact..
Simon Cheng is a stubborn guy: China as a great State, China as a great Empire is the land owner of Hong Kong.
For example, if I rented a whole building of 50 floors, but the majority of the leaseholders would say to me,
"Get out of here this our tower,"
It's a shame.
With these evidence why should world believe anything said or assurances by Britishers.. Ukraine should take note of these.. what is guarantee that Britishers would not make deal with Russia behind their back..
that is obviously. how CPC retain its rulling, when there is democracy allowed under its watch. look at the Tibet and ugyhur.. that is not Han ethic. and they don't allow any difference with CPC under their control.
Too bad for Hong Kong, and xi jinping has not even done anything to put Hong Kong to what it is in the global economy. Then they blame the west for all their failures. Coward, egomaniac liar xi jinping and the CCP!
Nobody cares Britain view now
China isn't Qing dynasty, Hong Kong is not China's. China is established in 1949, has 72 years old history only. China is split from Republic of China called Taiwan.
In the past 300 years, Scotland's call for independence has not been interrupted. The King of England savagely slaughtered the Scottish people and suppressed the independence uprising. In 1948, Ireland officially seceded from the Commonwealth of Nations and became fully independent. And behind this is the centuries-long resistance of the Irish people to British rule. Today, there are still people trying to bully China with colonial means, then go to war. Britain is definitely the first country to be wiped from the earth! Small island country, thought it was 100 years ago.
The British treated HK Chinese like dogs for over a century. As Chinese HK'er, my father would tell me stories of white police kicking him up the backside just for walking on the street. The British ruled HK with an iron fist and the people never had the freedom to vote. The HK Chinese are much better off now than ever before, they finally have a government that really cares about it's future rather than one who was profiteering and trying to suck it dry.
And what did Britain do with Northern Ireland protocol?
LOL
wumao incoming in 3…2..1.
Cry me a River
There's still a lord or master existing in the angolo countries?
Yeah who believes Lord patern the paid liars of this country 🥱
chinese bots are all over the comments.
Western nations are very SAD that HK chaos has ended and turn into stability.
Maybe they hope to occupy HK for another 100 years.
How did British get hold of Hong Kong in the first place?
Good grief! We still have Lords in the 21st Century?
Anyway doesn't he look like a typical 19th Century colonial slave trader.
Men usually help women and step on other men as man characteristic and their excuses regardless whether they knew any mistakes by the women or not!

UK ruled HK like a serfdom for 150+ years. The serfs had NO say how to run the city, there was no DEMOCRACY.
At time of hand-over, UK creates the COMMON LAWS, sowing trouble seeds.
US & UK were behind the riots, they hired the young thuds to trash the city. Those youngsters were in the streets asking for DEMOCRACY & mouthing the slogans dictated to them by spies. They did not know if DEMOCRACY hit them in their faces. HK ranked 3rd as the most Democratic place in the world before the color revolution sponsored by US & UK.
US & UK were using the HK card, but China put an end to their ambition, so they belittle China's effective effort in restoring peace.
Where were those old farts who partook in the HK riots during UK's rule?
Loser is crying very hard…..
Chinese bots all over the comments lmao
only without the ccp can we move foward amen
This was what done by Hongkong Police in normal day
