Wokingham
Pledge
I pledge to support Hongkongers
in their pursuit of freedom and democracy;
in their settlement and integration in the UK, including the existing BN(0) visa programme and support for Hongkonger asylum seekers facing political repression, and;
in the exercise of their civic rights and freedoms, free from repression, in Britain.
Lucy Demery (Conservative Party): Signed
Colin Wright (Reform UK): Signed
Policy questionnaire
1. Tackling transnational repression by the Chinese and Hong Kong governments
Colin Wright (Reform UK):
There is no place for repression of Hongkongers and we need to morally and effectively support as much as is physically possible with relevant actions to make a substantive difference.
2. Sanctioning Chinese and Hong Kong government officials responsible for human rights abuses
Colin Wright (Reform UK):
Sanctions need to hurt, be relevant and be driven through to conclusion.
3. Shutting down Confucius Institutes in the UK
Colin Wright (Reform UK):
These should never have been allowed to be set up and we need to take swift action to remove them forthwith.
4. Assisting Hong Kong immigrants in retrieving their Mandatory Provident Fund (MPF)
Colin Wright (Reform UK):
Yes, anything that can be done with an MPs support has my 100% backing.
5. Assisting Hong Kong immigrants in finding jobs commensurate with their work experience
Colin Wright (Reform UK):
Yes Wokingham and surrounding areas are a buoyant area and we should assist in anyway feasible to ensure skills are mirrored to available employment.
6. Improving NHS services and reducing crimes in local communities
Colin Wright (Reform UK):
These are both key priorities that Reform have key strategies to ensure both have the key focus they very sorely need.
