  1. This was an embarrassing and shameful thing, The Media here in China had to change the story six times as video and evidence was released showing our government acting like thugs,

    We are disgraced and ashamed of this, please understand many in China do not like this or even approve of the people who run us,

  2. If I check the video carefully, there is indeed a guy from the embassy side, so called collage of the diplomat, he is beaten up by the protestors. If the diplomat tells the truth, at that moment the police was doing nothing, at least not enough to pull them away, then it makes sense that the embassy sides try to save their college. Of course, the whole situation gets rough, but I think there should be also certain understanding there, especially we see the whole video, it’s not the embassy side started the violence. This is not been said at all in media.

  3. Chinese Consular General is obligated to enforce recently passed HK National Security Law in UK too. Beat up peaceful protesters shouldn't happen in HK only, but also UK. 🤣😁 Expecting CCP regime diplomat to behave civilly is a very novice thought on the part of Brit. Foreign Services and UK government. Instead, the Consular General is blaming Manchester police did not give the Chinese Consulate enough diplomatic protection led to this incident to happen.

  4. Not sure that any diplomat would attack a protestor to defend the honor of his country, but it's totally mainland Chinese/CCP to lie about it, even though the act is on video.

  5. What a Diplomat … Such a disgrace !! At least, he should say sorry when he was interviewed by SkyNews … But, in fact, he was still in denial … Commie only cares about their “face” … Say SORRY to the people of Hong Kong, Mr. Consul-General !!! Don’t be so arrogant !!! According to British Common Law, hair pulling is an assault !!!

  6. The chinese official needs to be punished. Is the UK government and police going to stand by and accept his nonsense excuse that it was his duty?? What’s next? Is it ok if they drag another protester inside consulate grounds and kill him in the name of duty?
