Let's Talk
Catherine West, a founding patron of “Hong Kong Watch,” was appointed Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Indo-Pacific at UK’s Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office following Labour's victory in the July 2024 general election. In her first interview with Hong Kong media since taking office, West spoke cautiously and deliberately. In an exclusive interview with Green Bean Media, she discussed the MPF issue that concerns Hongkongers in the UK, emphasising that the British government remains actively engaged with HSBC and Standard Chartered to try to get MPF funds released.
West also acknowledged the presence of transnational repression in the UK and stated that the government is closely monitoring suspicious activities, particularly those involving countries like China and Iran. Reflecting on her recent visit to Hong Kong, she shared her witness of the city’s irrevocable changes and reaffirmed the UK government’s support for Jimmy Lai, stating, “We have his back.”
曾任「香港監察」創會贊助人的衛倩婷，隨著2024年7月工黨執政，獲委任為英國外交、聯邦及發展部政務次官，主管印太事務。她在上任後首次接受香港媒體的訪問，言談謹慎，小心翼翼。她在《綠豆》的獨家專訪談到移英港人關注的強積金問題，強調英國政府仍積極向英資匯豐和渣打爭取，讓港人提取強積金。衛倩婷又承認在英國有跨國鎮壓行為存在，政府會睜大眼睛密切監察，特別是涉及中國和伊朗等國的可疑事件。她又談及較早前訪港，親自感受到無法挽回的轉變，並強調英國政府繼續撐黎智英：「We have his back.」
