Rally organisers want Britain to take immediate action on China, and to get Beijing to admit the 'one country, two systems' arrangement is not working. FMTNews

Demonstrators are angry about what they see as creeping interference by Beijing in their city’s affairs despite a promise of autonomy.

The Chinese-ruled territory has been rocked by weeks of sometimes violent pro-democracy protests, with demonstrators angry about what they see as creeping interference by Beijing in their city’s affairs despite a promise of autonomy. “We ask UK to take immediate action on China not honouring the Sino-British Joint Declaration and acknowledge one country, two systems is not functioning,” the rally organisers said.

It has accused foreign powers, particularly the United States and Britain, of fomenting the unrest and told them to mind their own business.“The Joint Declaration is a legally binding treaty between the UK and China that remains as valid today as it was when it was signed and ratified over 30 years ago,” a British Foreign Office spokeswoman said in June.But it was not immediately clear what Britain could do.
