THREAD: @AmbZhengZeguang - welcome to UK

I have 10 questions for you

1. Millions of #Uyghurs are in prison camps, women forcibly sterilised, people used for slave labour, horrific torture & sexual violence reported /

The evidence is there, & increasingly experts recognise it as genocide. Why are you doing this to Uyghurs & why won't you allow international, independent monitors to visit unrestricted?/

2. Why have you torn up an international treaty, lodged at the UN, valid until 2047, in which you promised to protect #HongKong's autonomy, freedoms, rule of law and basic human rights? Why has your regime destroyed #HongKongers' freedoms?

3. Why are you afraid of the #DalaiLama, why are you repressing #Tibet's religion and culture, and why does an atheist regime think it is qualified to decide who is reincarnated as the next Dalai Lama?

4. Why are you terrified of #FalunGong, whose principles are "truthfulness, compassion and forebearance"?

Is it because your #CCP regime is scared of the truth, hates compassion and is weak and insecure?

5. Why is your regime conducting worst persecution of Christians since Cultural Revolution, destroying thousands of crosses & churches, forcing Christians to display #XiJinping's image & #CCP propaganda in church, retranslating the Bible?

Is it because you're scared of truth?

6. Why won't you tell us where is #GaoZhisheng, what has happened to other human rights defenders in #China, and why won't you free #ZhangZhang?

Is it because you're afraid of people who defend rights or question the #CCP's judgment?

7. Do you think it is ethically acceptable to forcibly remove human organs from prisoners of conscience, killing them in the process, to sell them for transplant?

Why won't you respond to the China Tribunal's clear judgment on this? chinatribunal.com

8. Why won't you allow citizen journalists, bloggers & civil society activists any space to comment & advocate?

Your regime used to, in the early 2000s, until #XiJinping came along

What scared #CCP so much that now it locks up or disappears anyone who appears not to be in line?

9. What on earth is #XiJinping Thought and why are you making it a compulsory subject in the curriculum in schools?

Wouldn't it be better for students to concentrate on Chinese, English, history, mathematics, science, geography ...?

10. What do you have to hide about #COVID19 origins, why did you repress the truth instead of the virus at the beginning, why did you silence doctors and whistleblowers, why were you slow to alert the world, and why do you refuse an independent inquiry now?

What are you hiding?

Those are my ten questions for now, Mr Ambassador.

I have many more, but these are good as a starting point.
