On Monday, formerly imprisoned Hong Kong opposition leader Wu Chi-wai was granted leave to stay in the United Kingdom for six months, as the government revoked their one-week limit that was issued after Wu was briefly detained at the border last Wednesday. International organizations expressed serious concern over his case, and the situation of Hong Kongers in Britain more generally, many of whom fled Hong Kong due to concerns of persecution and lack of human rights protections.
