Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office spokesperson said:
The Hong Kong authorities’ decision to target leading pro-democracy figures for prosecution is unacceptable and must stop.
The right to peaceful protest is fundamental to Hong Kong’s way of life - protected in both the Joint Declaration and the Basic Law - and it should be upheld.
