Familiar threats to the UK from CCP mouthpiece Mr Gao, warning of a 'nasty' phase if Britain doesn't grant permission for China's embassy. But Britain loses leverage with China if it shows weakness; it needs to stand firm against China's threats to UK interests.
“If Britain wants to ruffle feathers with China… you need to be fully aware of all the consequences.” Blocking China’s plans for a new embassy in London would cause China to retaliate in kind, says former government adviser Victor Gao.

Thanks to @ChrisLawSNP for pressing the U.K. government to clarify their position on the #China threat in the UK and ongoing transnational repression against #Tibetans, #Uyghurs + #Hongkongers
China's oppressive actions towards Tibetans, Uyghurs and Hong Kongers, and their threatening behaviour towards Members of Parliament and embassy staff, has so far gone largely ignored by the UK Government.

This was not “art.” It was cultural and ecological violence - an extension of the erasure of Tibet as a nation and a people. Tibet, the “Third Pole,” sustains nearly two billion people across Asia, yet its environment and culture are under attack. 🧵(2)
