Uyghur people are missing family members, their language disappearing & community being destroyed. Loved ones are leveraged for silence & those speaking out do so at personal risk. They deserve transparency from the UN + @mbachelet , and all of our respect.

HUGE WIN 🚨 Tesco is removing Hikvision and Dahua from its stores, in response to our joint letter with @freetibetorg and @BigBrotherWatch outlining the companies’ role in the persecution of Uyghurs and Tibetans. Good move @Tesco - who’s next? 👀

Imagine your children were taken away from you for no reason and you couldn't get them back. That's the reality for millions of Uyghurs. Please take five minutes to read this heartbreaking BBC report on the stolen Uyghur children.

Whilst our Foreign Sec thinks that cooperation with the Chinese regime is necessary to "contain" the Taliban, #Uyghurs in Afghanistan are now living in fear of detention and deportation. Is this what a "moderating influence" looks like @DominicRaab ?

Who needs a spy balloon when Chinese state-owned CCTV is installed across UK police stations, schools, government buildings and hospitals? It is time that the UK government takes definitive action to #BanHikvision

A brilliant article from @MahmutRahima and @nathanlawkc on why the G20 members must not forget that human rights need to be universal. Those under the repressive rule of the Chinese government deserve the same freedoms as everybody else.
