Tohti Emet, an elderly farmer, was sentenced to 25 years in 2022. His son, Abdurahman tohti, only now knows this, after more than 3 years, as he had no contact with home. Chinese govrnmnt should immediately and unconditionally free hundreds and thousands of unjustly imprisoned Uyghurs.

BBC News - 'Great British Energy solar panels' for schools were made in China.Two thirds (68%) of solar panels imported by UK in 2024 came from China. Now UK companies involved with products made with slave labour can be prosecuted. โฆEd Milibandโฉ bbc.co.uk/news/articles/โฆ

Lord(Chris)Fox trenchantly sets out the case for press freedom. I will vote with him & a broad based alliance of like minded Peers House of Lords to deter what UK Parliament Intelligence & Security Committee has called penetration by the CCP into every vestige of UK life.Enough!

Today Parliament approved new laws (by 112 votes) allowing foreign government investors to own 15% of UK newspapers. Wrongheaded policy rushed through to try to facilitate the Telegraph acquisition. NO to ๐จ๐ณ state influence in ๐ฌ๐ง media. Lord (David) Alton had it right ๐
