“This happened or was signalled a month ago. China controls HK. UK gave it (HK) away what, a decade ago?”
1997. Their rental treaty ended in 1999 and China said, “We want it now.”
That’s 23 years ago. I’m surprised they didn’t take over sooner.

Expect a crash in China.

Yes. It was being exploited to advance CCP interest at the expense of the rest of the world. It's tough to see the good people of HK get screwed, not their fault, a fluke of birth and time.
Yep. China took advantage of the rental treaty.
Between this and the dam LITERALLY about to break...watch out, CHI-nah.
Commie Cuomo getting some deserved blame and push back.
Let’s dream HK goes Ellis Wyatt on the Chicoms.
