Senior Chinese diplomat releases CCTV footage of consulate violence

The Chinese consulate in Manchester has given the Manchester Evening News footage from its CCTV feed after a protest outside - and claimed two members of its own staff were assaulted in the violence that followed.

Mr Cleverly tweeted tonight: "I’ve ordered the summoning of the Chinese Chargé d'Affaires to demand an explanation for the shocking scenes outside the Chinese Consulate-General in Manchester on Sunday. Peaceful protest is a fundamental right in United Kingdom and the Chinese Government must respect that."

The consulate claimed a 'mob' of protestors 'stormed' its grounds after 'deeply offensive imagery and slogans' they described as 'threatening and insulting' were displayed. They alleged staff were shoved, then two men who were knocked to the ground were stamped on and kicked. "During the ensuing scuffle, one of the protestors grabbed a member of consular staff by the neck and refused to let go. In an effort to free the staff member, other members of staff pulled their colleague into our compound. Despite this, the attacker persistently refused to let go and plunged into the property himself.

They should have stayed put in their safe house. But no, they decided to come out and protest at the protestors in defence of their dear leader, ripping down posters and noising up the protestors. Outrageous behaviour by the diplomatic core. They need removing and returning home.

Fake video

Hey MEN, quick questions: Did you do the red circles or did the consulate do the editing for you? Did you ask for the complete uncensored surveillance footage? Does the senior Chinese diplomat happen to be one of these people involved in the conflict?

It doesn't matter what they find disturbing or offensive they have no rights to attack protestors. Angry and volatile envoys should man the fuck up and stop kowtowing to their leader like lowly curs. Protestor 'Bob' is worth a hundred spineless little arse lickers like him.
