from British Thought Leaders · host British Thought Leaders

NTD’s Lee Hall sits down with Mark Clifford, an author and the president of the Committee for Freedom in Hong Kong Foundation. Clifford talks about Hong Kong entrepreneur Jimmy Lai's incredible rise from rags to riches, becoming a billionaire media owner and Hong Kong's most famous dissident. Clifford explains why, despite having the means to escape, Lai did not seek to avoid his sentence as a political prisoner—and how he has now spent years in solitary confinement. Clifford says Britain can do more to rescue Lai and Hong Kong from the Chinese communist regime.
