There was a strong police presence on Hong Kong streets on Oct. 1, the 73rd anniversary of the fall of China to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Termed as the National Day of the People’s Republic of China by the CCP, communist flags flew all over subdued Hong Kong while across the world in Manchester, U.K., a large crowd of Hongkongers in exile gathered to protest the loss of freedom in the city of their birth.
U.K.-based HK Indigenous Defence Force and Manchester Hongkonger Association joined forces at the rally held at St. Peter’s Square to call for global resistance against the CCP and its authoritarianism.
