Picture of Jimmy Lai sitting with "Free Jimmy Lai" written.
Jimmy Lai's conviction is a blow to press freedom everywhere.
In Hong Kong, the role of journalism in holding power to account is now treated as a crime.
Jimmy Lai is a prisoner of conscience.
The fight doesn't end here. We will not rest until justice prevails. β
The Foreign Secretary must summon the Chinese Ambassador to demand Jimmy Lai's immediate release and the quashing of this trumped-up conviction.
The CCP is hell-bent on suppressing civil liberties & the rule of law in Hong Kong. The UK has a unique obligation to act.

"The Chancellor's announcement that the two-child limit will be scrapped is hugely welcome, and will be a positive step towards tackling child poverty in Wales. However, the decision not to increase local housing allowance is one that will undermine efforts to end the housing emergency here in Wales. "Recent research from Shelter Cymru has shown that right now there are just 14 homes in Wales that are available and affordable to individuals or families that rely on local housing allowance to cover the cost of renting in the private sector. At a time when rents are rising faster in Wales than anywhere else in Britain the continued failure to ensure that the true cost of renting is reflected in this policy is one that will only push more families into homelessness and undermine progressive policy changes being delivered by the Welsh Government.
Responding to today's announcement, Robin White, Head of Campaigns at Shelter Cymru, said:

Cross sector support and cross party support.
It is the time to make a change and give more people the chance to have a place to call home.
14!
Only 14 homes in #Wales are affordable within local housing allowance. The UK goverment can change this and increase that number.
We know having an affordable place to call home gives people the foundation they need to build their life.
