Secretary for Justice (and for Unique Names) for Rimsky Yuen said told the press today pro-democracy lawmakers planned to boycott the second round of political consultation on political reform, which launched today. 

In light of this, Yuen said achieving political reform seems like “Mission: Impossible” – how optimistic of the man in charge of the city’s judicial system! 

At this point, hacking into a computer while hanging from a ceiling seems slightly easier.

Yuen urged these lawmakers to reconsider their position, and to consider the fact that the public wants universal suffrage for the 2017 chief executive elections (though we’re not sure anyone is arguing against that).
