MP describes 'really, really chilling' bar from entering China

From the creator

A British politician says China's refusal to allow her into the country is a "wake-up call" to other MPs. Liberal Democrat MP Wera Hobhouse was refused entry last week to the country to visit her newborn grandson. She is a member of the Inter-Parliamentary Alliance on China and told Sky News she suspects the ban was due to her involvement in "freedom, democracy and human rights". "Therefore, anybody who is seen as standing up for freedom, democracy and human rights should feel that they are going to be targeted by the Chinese authorities and that is really, really chilling," she said. https://news.sky.com/story/liberal-democrat-mp-wera-hobhouse-denied-entry-to-hong-kong-to-visit-newborn-grandson-13347858 #china #humanrights #beijing #liberaldemocrats SUBSCRIBE to our YouTube channel for more videos: http://www.youtube.com/skynews Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/skynews Like us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/skynews Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/skynews Follow us on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@skynews For more content go to http://news.sky.com and download our apps: Apple https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/sky-news/id316391924?mt=8 Android https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bskyb.skynews.android&hl=en_GB Sky News Daily podcast is available for free here: https://podfollow.com/skynewsdaily/ Sky News videos are now available in Spanish here/Los video de Sky News están disponibles en español aquí: https://www.y
