Hong Kong Columns - Translated
Edward Leung from HK Indigenous has declared not to be involved in “HK Independence” and to support Basic Law bona fide, causing a dilemma for the government. Many politicians have learnt from internal sources from govt that this confirmation letter was brought up by Carrie Lam, Rimsky Yuen and Secretary for Constitutional and Mainland Affairs Raymond Tam, and they told the returning officers this before the nomination period.
Pan-dems said if the govt still insisted to ban Edward Leung from contesting, while allowing those from Civic Passion bloc and Youngspiration to contest, this will further cause doubts from the public and the world, and might cause another riot as this form is said to target Leung.
