In the European Parliament on Wednesday 8 October, Claire shows her solidarity with the ‘hundreds of heroic democracy protestors’ in Hong Kong and condemns the totalitarian efforts of the Chinese government to curtail democracy as well as their brutal treatment of the protestors. She then goes on to criticise the EU and its hypocrisy in cheering on the Hong Kong Protester whilst ignoring the struggle of the <i>gilets jaunes</i> in France.
