Hong Kong activists convicted in relation to 2019 protests

Newsday

Available for over a year

Courts in Hong Kong find a number of opposition politicians guilty of "unauthorised assembly" - the sentence is yet to come, but the verdict has already caused strong reaction: the full interview with former Democratic leader Emily Lau. Over a year into the Coronavirus pandemic, could Africa play a role in vaccine manufacturing? We'll speak to the former British Prime Minister Tony Blair. And "a system no longer rigged against members of ethnic minorities" - that's the finding of a report on race relations here in the UK, but not everyone agrees.
