Abstract | What paradoxes are presented by the September elections to Legco, which resulted in a humiliation of the so-called 'pro-Beijing' candidates in favour of the successful 'democrats'? The most obvious paradox is that whereas those elections were the conscious and intended fruit of Governor Chris Patten's controversial reforms,he responded to their results by announcing that he would veto any decision of that historical first-ever fully-elected Legco that were contrary to Hong Kong's interests. |
