This is the best summary I could come up with:
Finn Lau’s meeting with a Westminster researcher who was later arrested on suspicion of spying for China lasted just 20 minutes.
Lau, an exiled Hong Kong pro-democracy activist with a £100,000 bounty on his head, has a lingering suspicion that some of his ideas for putting more pressure on China appear not to have made it beyond their meeting.
Exiled Chinese dissidents such as Lau, as well as Hong Kong activists and others including advocates of Tibetan independence and China’s Uyghur minority ethnic group, have raised concerns after news of the researcher’s arrest in March emerged at the weekend.
This is a story that has gone viral among the Chinese community here,” said Lau, who continues to take security countermeasures every time he steps out in London.
Lau called for an audit of vetting measures in parliament – a system that he and Hong Kong activists argue sometimes makes it more difficult for them to engage with the democratic process in the UK.
“The government must take urgent, concrete steps to investigate this case and demonstrate to those standing up for the rights of their families and friends in China that parliament is the protected space it claims to be.”
