The Democratic Alliance for the Betterment of Hong Kong, Huang Dingguang, stated that Chen Shuzhuang was convicted of 2 criminal offences in the District Court on April 9, 2019, and sentenced to more than one month's imprisonment by the District Court. According to Rule 49B (1) of the Rules of Procedure This motion moves to dismiss Chen Shuzhuang's membership.

On September 27, 2014, he appealed to the public to bring the same materials to Admiralty, and later instigated the protesters to participate in the occupation. Huang Dingguang believed that Chen Shuzhuang knew the law and violated the law. The Legislative Council As an organ that upholds the rule of law, it should send clear messages through motions.

Shao Jiazhen, a member of the social welfare industry who was moved by the FTU to cancel the membership, spoke on DQ Chen Shuzhuang's motion. Shao Jiazhen described himself as being good and thanked the Member who proposed the motion every time he spoke, but today he can't behave and will not thank Huang Dingguang.

Opposition to DQ Chen Shuzhuang Shao Jiazhen: robs 35,000 Hong Kong Island voters

Shao Jiazhen criticized the establishment faction for disqualifying him and Chen Shuzhuang. The approach was obviously a misjudgement of the situation. He blamed the government and the establishment faction for the collapse of the district council elections and the six-month anti-revision campaign, but he still failed to grasp the public sentiment and public opinion. Shao Jiazhen emphasized his opposition to DQ Chen Shuzhuang, describing that the disqualification of Chen Shuzhuang not only snatched his seat, but also snatched 35,000 people's public opinion on Hong Kong Island.

Democrat Chen Zhiquan said that the bill is unjust in procedure and unnecessary. He emphasized that it would only fuel the current situation, which would do no good to the Legislative Council, and did not understand why the motion was proposed at this moment. He also pointed out that the case is still at the appeal stage and he questioned whether the motion should be voted on after the outcome of the appeal. Chen Zhiquan emphasized that Chen Shuzhuang did not participate in any violent shocks during the occupation movement, and only called for peaceful protests. The purpose was to hope that Hong Kong would have a universal suffrage. He mentioned that the motion to seize more than 30,000 seats by members elected by zero votes was a disregard for public opinion and absurdity.

Legislative Councillor He Junyao said today that he spoke with a heavy heart. He said that as a member of the Legislative Council, the law should be observed in accordance with the law. However, in the current Legislative Council, the first day of the opening ceremony was "seriously rotten". This is the great bane. He Junyao also pointed out that during the occupation movement in 2014, Dai Yaoting, an associate professor in the Faculty of Law of the University of Hong Kong, proclaimed civil disobedience, planted seeds for this, and later beautified the law. He claimed that Chen Shuzhuang had stated that he was willing to be imprisoned in violation of the law, but he did not confess the charges during the defense. He emphasized that "offending the law is breaking the law" and must face what he has done. Finally, he called on members to take the public interest as the lead and support the relevant motion.

Chen Hengzheng: Ruoli's sentence on Chen Shuzhuang did not indicate that society would interpret it as a lawmaker's offense

Member of the Functional Constituency of the Architecture, Surveying and Urban Planning Sector, Tse Wai-yue, said that the motion was proposed in accordance with the Basic Law and that he would examine it strictly in accordance with the Basic Law, emphasizing that "it would not be as if some people are wrong with others, without a position or principle." He reiterated that, in accordance with Article 79 of the Basic Law, if a member of the Legislative Council was convicted of a criminal offence, he was sentenced to imprisonment for more than one month and was discharged from office by two-thirds of the members present at the meeting. Xie pointed out that Chen Shuzhuang clearly complied with the regulations. Although some people questioned the case involved political prosecutions, the Hong Kong Bar Association did not question the results after the court's ruling. He could not see why members of this council could not vote in favor of the motion unless they Ignore the Basic Law and seek only the seats of party members.

Member of the Democratic Alliance for the Betterment of Hong Kong, Chen Hengzheng, said, "You need to count the number of meals, and you need to be in prison for breaking the law. Chen Shuzhuang ruled that inciting others to commit public harassment and inciting others to instigate public harassment are two serious crimes. The case is serious. If the Legislative Council does not express her sentence, it will give society another interpretation that members of the law can break the law and call for a popular motion to annihilate relatives.

At the end of the motion, 54 members voted, of which 29 were in favor and 24 were against. The motion was not rejected with the support of two-thirds of the members. (Photo by Zhang Haowei)
