Should Britain interfere with Hong Kong?
Before I start, I did a little reaserch about this issue. I found out that, China's ambassador to the UK has warned British politicians against interfering in Hong Kong's affairs, amid clashes between protesters and police. He made the comment in response to a question about a proposal by Commons Foreign Affairs Select Committee chairman Tom Tugendhat to extend UK citizenship rights to Hong Kong Chinese. Britain promised to give Hong Kong it's country back. Britain and China were working together to take down Hong Kong and signed a contract saying 'one country, two system. Britain gave on the first of July, 1997 at midnight. China has warned the UK not to interfere in its domestic affairs amid a growing diplomatic row over the recent protests in Hong Kong. The crown colony of Hong Kong officially reverted to chinese sovereignty, ending 156 years of British rule. Great Britain had acquired Hong Kong island from China in 1842.
Thanks for listening!!!!!!

Thanks for your post - could you tell us where you found your information?
I did a little research.
But I school I learnt that Britain and china signed a contract and it say 1 country 2 systems
Reserved_ cherry you inspired me to right this post. In one of are R.E lessons we learnt about being committed and what it means to be commiitted i feel like by signing the contract China has to stick to it but onbviuosly China does not feel the same way
Committed means that you are very willing to give your time and energy to something. For example, 'China is commited to give back hong kong it's country back
Should Britain get involed in the hong Kong crisis?
In my opinion, I think that britain shouln't get involed with hong kong because I think that we should let Hong Kong find its own solution. I also think britain should not get involed because britain has its own problems like Brexit. And if we don't solve Brexit, then we are going to have problems like running out of food, medicine and clothes. So when we finish with our own problems, then we can help other countries.
You can develop my idea if you want.

I disagree with you because if Britain get invole with Hong Kong's buisness, there will be a more serious chaos with Britain and China. And Britain and China were working together.
I aggree most of are supplies are from China.

since i go to the same school as you have all ready heard my opion but it has changed since are last BNC lesson. i feel lf i were a Hong Kong student right know i would be saying these exact words ''we all deserve to live in peace and if you people from the U.K come to help we will finally feel safe once again.'' you can develop my idea if you want.
Thank you extraordinary_tamarind. I agree with you because if I was a Hong kong student, I would say the same thing, I am going to translate it. 我們所有人都應該和平生活，如果你們來自英國的人們來幫助我們，我們將最終再次感到安全. I use google translate.
