I called local government to ask for the effects of teargas on children and the official line is they don't know they extent of it, and they don't know what's in the teargas. Will tweet this every day: they sprayed outside our baby clinic, outside the paediatrician's building.

This. If this was happening in any other civilised place, the political leadership would be speaking to the people, seeking to calm, reassure, explain, at least justify. But HK has to cope not only with the ongoing events but with SILENCE from Lam and her government. Shameful.

Before the police stormed in, protesters decided to man the tills of the 711 inside #PolyU. Even amidst such chaos they still try to maintain order despite the dangers they're facing.
So who are the real rioters?

If nothing else, I'm glad the NBA issue has made American people aware of the global power shifts & the great kowtow to China going on across the board. I've witnessed this again and again over the last few years.
