In the Legislative Council election held in December last year, Democratic Party vice-chairman Leung Yi-ting, party member Su Yiheng and former Legislative Council member Li Huaming violated discipline and supported non-party candidates in the Legislative Council election, despite the opposition of the party's Central Committee.
The Central Committee of the Democratic Party held a meeting on Wednesday night (19th) and decided to vote on the Disciplinary Committee's proposal to remove Liang and Su from the party membership in the middle of next month, and freeze Li Huaming's party membership for half a year. The latter can appeal within 7 days.

Today (21st), a column from the Democratic Party quoted a member of the Democratic Party as saying that Li Huaming was given a light sentence by the Disciplinary Committee because he was well-known and had made a lot of contributions over the years.
The Democratic Party's Disciplinary Committee sent a letter to the party's Central Committee today, claiming that the content of the column was inaccurate, and that the Central Committee did not clarify and deal with doubts.
The Disciplinary Committee believes that this incident is likely to leak secrets, violate the code of conduct for members, and damage the trust among members and the party's reputation. It requires the Central Committee to actively take effective measures to ensure that all Central Committees take confidentiality responsibilities seriously.

After receiving the complaint, the Disciplinary Committee has always handled the hearing, ruling and punishment with great care. It also respects the member’s right to appeal and the relevant confidentiality obligations. The ruling also restricts the circulation of documents. If there is a need to respond to media inquiries, the chairman will reply, "However, at about 10 o'clock that night of the Central Committee meeting on January 19, a 'person in the party' disclosed the relevant decision to the media, which would be a decision that the Central Committee deems appropriate. method?"
"Sent lightly" Li Huaming's report is inaccurate but no clarification
The column of the Hong Kong Economic Journal mentioned that Li Huaming's ruling was lighter than the other two. "It is because the Disciplinary Committee took into account that the founder of the party is well-known and has made a lot of contributions to the Democratic Party over the years, so he's given a light sentence." It will be said that the above content is not prepared by Lin, but the Central Committee has not made any clarification and handling.
The Commission for Discipline Inspection stated that this leak of secrets has hurt the trust among party members. "'The Central Committee has no secrets to keep' is not an excuse for laissez-faire." It urged serious follow-up and appropriate handling.
Li Huaming's party membership was frozen or he quit the party and denounced the Democratic Party as a radical posterity: Playing politics is not fun!
