In the '818 Flowing Procession' case at Victoria Park in 2019, final appeal by Jimmy Lai, Lee Cheuk-yan, Wu Chi-wai, Leung Kwok-hung, Claudia Mo, Martin Lee, and Albert Ho for illegal assembly charges unanimously rejected by the Court of Final Appeal. Chief Justice Zhang Juneng emphasizes UK legal precedents differ from HK's context. Overseas judge David Neuberger, part of the ruling, finds no distinction in assessing restrictions on assembly rights between the two jurisdictions. Citizens left confused as judges no longer follow common law practice, influenced by China. #818Protests#JudicialIndependence#OverseasJudges#HongKong
