VOICED : Diputados prodemocracia de Hong Kong anuncian que dimitirán tras decisión de China

The Prodemocracy movement in Hong Kong faces significant challenges as opposition lawmakers plan to resign after four members were expelled by local authorities. This move follows the imposition of a national security law by China, which allows the disqualification of politicians deemed a threat without judicial oversight. The legislative elections, initially scheduled for September, were postponed due to the pandemic. The decision to expel lawmakers was criticized by the UK as an attack on Hong Kong's autonomy. The Legislative Council consists of 70 members, with half elected directly and the rest appointed by pro-Beijing groups.
