China’s white paper revolution: sanction those who harm peaceful protesters
Rejected
21 signatures
What the petition asks
I hope that there will be constant monitoring of reports of human rights violations in China, in particular, those violations which brings harm (either physical and mental) to peaceful protestors. Sanctions, either economically or others (e.g. prohibiting travel to UK) should be given to deter.
Without interference with peaceful protests, the Chinese can obtain limited freedom of speech. This can lead to democracy.
Why the UK Government/Parliament?
The best way to resolve the tension between UK and China is to allow people to tackle the evil communist government of China. If we choose to ignore what is happening in China, we lose allies who are brave. If we do not support the resistance to the Chinese communist government, we maybe next to taste the evil of the Chinese government.
