   Yesterday I saw two groups of Chinese people in #Sheffield having a huge argument about #HongKong.  There were about 200 people in total. Police were separating them. They were shouting at each other in Chinese, but I asked one of the people there and they told me it was about Hong Kong. 
   It was quite intense.. People were very angry.
   There seemed to be a lot more pro Chinese people than pro Hong Kong. 
   
   BBC reports it here.

     There have been small groups of pro Hong Kong Chinese students raising awareness of Hong Kong in a low key way for many weeks now.  You know, with a flag, some posters/flyers and a table with a petition.. that kind of thing.

     At the end our conversation, the Chinese person I spoke to said, "Hong Kong belongs to China!"
