Hong Kong activist Nathan Law applies for asylum in Britain. Exclusive: Law said he chose UK in hope of ‘sounding an alarm’ over threats to democracy in Europe from China.
Nathan Law photographed in London where he lives in exile. Nathan Law Kwun-chung is an activist from Hong Kong. As a former student leader, he has been chairman of the Representative Council of the Lingnan University Students' Union (LUSU), acting president of the LUSU, and secretary-general of the Hong Kong Federation of Students (HKFS). He was one of the student leaders during the 79-day Umbrella Movement in 2014. He is the founding and former chairman of Demosisto?, a new political party derived from the 2014 protests.
On 4 September 2016, at the age of 23, Law was elected to serve as a legislator for Hong Kong Island, making him the youngest lawmaker in the history of the Legislative Council of Hong Kong. Over his controversial oath-taking at the Legislative Council inaugural meeting, his office was challenged by the Hong Kong Government which resulted in his disqualification from the Legislative Council on 14 July 2017. Chris Patten, the last British governor of Hong Kong, has described him as "a typically brave representative of a generation whose spirit the Communist Party wants to stamp out."
Following the enactment of the National Security Law on 1 July 2020, Law announced that he had moved to London, United Kingdom.

As a former student leader, he has been chairman of the Representative Council of the Lingnan University Students' Union (LUSU), acting president of the LUSU, and secretary-general of the Hong Kong Federation of Students (HKFS). He was one of the student leaders during the 79-day Umbrella Movement in 2014. He is the founding and former chairman of Demosisto?, a new political party derived from the 2014 protests.
On 4 September 2016, at the age of 23, Law was elected to serve as a legislator for Hong Kong Island, making him the youngest lawmaker in the history of the Legislative Council of Hong Kong. Over his controversial oath-taking at the Legislative Council inaugural meeting, his office was challenged by the Hong Kong Government which resulted in his disqualification from the Legislative Council on 14 July 2017. Chris Patten, the last British governor of Hong Kong, has described him as "a typically brave representative of a generation whose spirit the Communist Party wants to stamp out."
Following the enactment of the National Security Law on 1 July 2020, Law announced that he had moved to London, United Kingdom.
