Hong Kong opposition party disbands citing ‘immense’ pressure


Hong Kong (AFP) – One of Hong Kong’s last remaining opposition parties has officially disbanded, citing “immense political pressure” as Beijing presses on with its years-long crackdown on dissent. The League of Social Democrats (LSD), founded in 2006, championed democratisation and grassroots issues in Hong Kong’s legislature and on the streets.
