I will conclude by making a reference to Jimmy Lai, who I regard as a modern white martyr. If ever there was someone who deserves to get our human dignity award, if he ever gets out, it is he. This is a man who could be enjoying one of his many properties anywhere in the world but he chose to stay in Hong Kong to fight for democracy. Our Government, among many other governments, is letting people like him down.
