Yes. This is my understanding too. What's funny is the government's legal opinion is from a UK lawyer about a Chinese interpretation of a HK LegCo rule. What's even crazier: the LegCo "security team" only attack/restrain the Pro-Democracy legislators. There's no hiding their "affiliation".
From what I saw on the videos, they only restrained (they didn’t attack anyone) legislators who physically tried to block the meeting from taking place. In this case it only being pan-democrat.
Feel free to look at the videos yourself and make up your own mind of course.
There is video of attacking legislator by others. In any case the no of legislator should be have been dq by various unlawful mean (one seat finally said it is unfair after nearly 2 years)
The problem is exactly what cause the whole uproar as except for this f procedure nothing can now stop to enact whatever the law they want.
It is either f or ... then mainland start impatient and ignore the whole legislature and just enact their own law.
That is really the end of HONG Kong as far as HONgkonger or foreigner concern.
The security law is not your run of the mill law. It is going to be arbitrary arrest etc.
The HKER will fight but given there is no nominal protection even, there would not be financial centre any more.
