HONG KONG - Tens of thousands rallied in Hong Kong on Sunday driven by deep-seated anger at the government’s handling of an extradition bill which has revived fears of Beijing attempting to erode freedoms in the former British colony.
“Didn’t they promise 50 years, no change? And yet we’ve all seen the changes. I myself am already 70-something years old. What do I know about politics? But politics comes to you.” Some protesters at Sunday’s event waved banners appealing to U.S. President Donald Trump to “Please liberate Hong Kong” and “Defend our Constitution”, scenes certain to rile Beijing which has been angered by criticism from Washington and London over the bill.
“I never missed a march so far since June,” said a 69-year-old man who gave only his surname, Chen, referring to the wave of protests.
