The time for the middle ground was then........by walking away and disowning the violence. That did not happen. Let's be clear - the violence and demonstrations only stopped because of Covid-19. Over recent weeks we have seen a resurgence of small demonstrations and I'm pretty certain that will lead to where we were in the latter half of last year. That will not serve anyone well. Pause for thought here, and think - would China be implementing this new law if all the events of last year had been peaceful. Probably not. Maybe we are getting what we asked for.
