Protestors clash with police near Parliament in Hong Kong

Chinese media today blamed foreign interference over the huge protest that brought Hong Kong to a standstill yesterday, accusing opponents of the city's pro-Beijing government of 'collusion with the West'. Organisers say 1,030,000 people marched through the streets of the territory against a proposed new law that would allow suspects wanted in mainland China to be sent across the border for trial. Opponents of the legislation say it would erode precious freedoms in the city and leave dissidents at the mercy of Beijing's opaque justice system. However, Hong Kong's leader Carrie Lam today said the legislature would debate the bill on Wednesday as planned, rejecting calls to delay or withdraw the law despite the massive protest.
