Dai Yaoting denounced the two offices for accusation of absurdity and trample on the Basic Law
Dai Yaoting wrote an article in FB today in response to a statement issued by the Liaison Office of China yesterday. Regarding the accusation of "typical suspected crimes", Dai Yaoting solemnly pointed out that the allegations are totally unreasonable. Dai Yaoting said that in the past few years, he has only hoped that the central government will implement the Basic Law’s commitment to universal suffrage as early as possible. During the deliberations of this primary election, the participants agreed that the Legislative Council should use the constitutional powers conferred by the Basic Law, including vetoing the Budget proposed by the SAR Government to hold the SAR Government accountable to the Legislative Council.

If this can also be regarded as illegal, it will only make future governance more difficult and will stimulate greater Fight.
