Why this petition matters

Started by Janet Zhang

Please legislate the UK version of Magnitsky Act in the UK, blocking or revoking UK visas and freezing UK-based property and interests in property of foreign individuals and entities who are responsible for human rights abuses.

As said by Dominic Raab on 29th September, the UK would introduce a UK Magnitsky Act. He stated: "Our vision of a truly global Britain, means being a force of good in the world, a good global citizen." We hope that this law can be brought into force IMMEDIATELY.

Considering that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) said the legally binding and U.N. registered Sino-British Joint Declaration on Hong Kong is "invalid"; considering its currently brutal suppression of peaceful demonstrations in Hong Kong, including shooting teenagers at close range;

Considering that the independent people's China Tribunal, in its final judgment delivered in London on June 17th this year, said there was clear evidence that forced organ harvesting mainly from Falun Gong practitioners has taken place in China for years "on a significant scale."  The Chinese Communist regime has committed crimes against humanity;

Considering that Falun Gong, a spiritual discipline consisting of meditative exercises and moral teachings based on truthfulness, compassion, and tolerance, has been brutally persecuted by the Chinese Communist regime for the past two decades;

Considering that over one million Uighurs in Xinjiang have been put into concentration camps and mistreated; Tibetans and underground church members are persecuted;

Considering that there have been 28 countries that have either already legislated or are preparing to introduce their own versions of Magnitsky legislation to impose visa bans and asset freezes on human rights abusers;

Considering within 20 days till 29th Aug this year, more than 10k people have signed on the White House petition website "WE the PEOPLE", Calling for official recognition of the CCP as a terrorist organisation;

We thus urge the UK government to introduce and bring the full Magnistky Act into force ASAP to sanction officials from the CCP and other countries who violate human rights.
