去年6月16日,破紀錄200萬人參加民陣大遊行,要求撤回修例。遊行黑衣人潮,由「痛心疾首」與「撤回惡法」兩幅黑白直幡帶領,由白晝走到黑夜。警方罕有先後全數開放馬路,予整天不絕的人潮,遊行歷時逾八小時才結束。
今日警方再以限聚令反對學生動源舉行「爭取五大訴求周年遊行」,原定由維園出發遊行至政府總部。他們宣布遊行取消,指出召集人鍾翰林會前往銅鑼灣一帶行街,又呼籲港人當日以自己方式繼續爭取自由民主公義。維多利亞公園的大規模防暴警察部署阻止了任何抗議行動。
下午2時,數百人在中環置地廣場中庭共三層聚集,有人高舉「光復香港 時代革命」黑旗及殖民地時代旗幟,並高唱《願榮光歸香港》,展示對抗爭「五大訴求 缺一不可」熱情未減,佔據怡和街往灣仔方向遊行,無懼最少3輛警車在場外部署。
Over 100 in Central Flashmob “Lunch with You” on 16 Jun One Year On
On 16 June last year, a record 2 million people took to the street, demanding the withdrawal of the extradition amendment. The sea of people in black in the march was led by two black and white giant front banners ‘Distressed with a bleeding heart. Withdraw the evil law’, from day to night. Rarely, the police have made available all roads to allow a constant flow of people throughout the day. The march took more than eight hours to complete.
Today, police again banned the “5 Demands Anniversary March” planned by Student Localism, citing social distancing rules, which was originally scheduled to depart from Victoria Park to the government headquarters. The march was cancelled, but noted that the convener Chung Hong-lam would go shopping in Causeway Bay, and also called on Hong Kong people to continue to fight for freedom, democracy and justice in their own way. Massive riot police at Victoria Park prevented any protest action.
At 1 pm, over 100 gathered at all levels of Landmark Atrium in Central. Some raised the black flags “Free Hong, Revolution of Our Time”, colonial Hong Kong flag and sang “Glory to Hong Kong”, demonstrating they are resolute in “5 Demands, Not One Less” in their protest, undaunted by at least 3 police cars deployed nearby.
