警昨夜突襲蘇屋邨票站 要求遮蓋揮春上手指尾大小「光時」字眼
The pro-democracy Legislative Council primary election was held yesterday and today. Power for Democracy announced that 234,547 people voted electronically on the first day. Voting ended at 9pm yesterday, but half an hour later, nine uniformed police officers searched the Kowloon West constituency polling station at the Mutual Aid Committee of Cherry Building, So Uk Estate. They took photographs and filmed inside the station, and said that even the finger-tip-sized “Liberate Hong Kong” wording on the fai chun could provoke improper intentions or actions among passers-by. Ming Kei (SFC:AMR955) Chan, the Association for Democracy and People’s Livelihood’s community organiser for So Uk, criticised the police for “making too much of the matter” in searching the polling station, stressing that the association would not easily submit.

The pro-democracy camp will hold a Legislative Council primary election tomorrow. The Police’s Cyber Security and Technology Crime Bureau searched the Hong Kong Public Opinion Research Institute in the evening and sought to seize computers and documents from its office.

Institute chairman and chief executive Chung Ting-yiu explained the latest situation in the early hours, saying the institute would strive to protect personal data and had refused to let police take the computers: “We have done nothing wrong and stand upright; taking away the computers would mean we could no longer operate. We are operating as usual.”

空姐牛肉飯私人檢控廣播處長覆核遭拒 斥法庭偏幫許智峯
The owner of the restaurant “Flight Attendant Beef Rice,” Deying Guo, previously initiated a private prosecution against Director of Broadcasting Leung Ka-wing on five counts of misconduct in public office. The court rejected the prosecution in a written judgment issued in early June. Guo applied for a review again, with the hearing held at West Kowloon Court today (10th). Deying Guo told reporters outside the court that the review had again been rejected and voiced strong dissatisfaction, saying she did not understand why the court had accepted two private prosecutions brought by Hui Chi-fung but rejected hers, and accusing it of “unfair treatment.”

公務員須宣誓 聶德權指須注意工餘言行
Starting on 1 July, the Government will require newly recruited civil servants to swear allegiance to the Basic Law and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. Serving civil servants will also be required to take the oath and sign documents in phases. Speaking today at a meeting of the Legislative Council Panel on Public Service and Subvented Sector Employees, Secretary for the Civil Service Patrick Nip Tak-kuen said civil servants must also pay attention to their words and conduct outside working hours. “It won’t be that this applies when you are at work, but after work you are unaffected; you still have the identity of a civil servant.”

荃灣雪糕店設初選票站 遭商場威脅終止租約
The pan-democratic primary will be held this weekend. Sogno Gelato, an ice-cream shop in Citywalk 2, is one of the polling stations for New Territories West, but the mall suddenly warned the shop that it had allegedly violated the Tenancy Ordinance and demanded that it stop providing polling-station services, or face a breach of contract and closure. The shop decided to cancel its primary polling-station services. Tsuen Wan District Councillor Adrian Cheuk Yu Lau criticised the move as political suppression, while the Neo Democrats Roy Hoi Pong Tam, which is participating in the New Territories West primary, urged the public to be “more determined in the face of greater suppression” and to vote in even greater numbers.

港大凌晨清除連儂牆「光時」等文宣 校方稱為保校園整潔 學生會：明顯因國安法
After the Hong Kong National Security Law took effect, many “yellow shops” began removing political materials from their premises, and tertiary institutions also started dismantling Lennon Walls. The pillars along University Street (U-Street), which connects the University of Hong Kong’s Centennial Campus and Main Campus, had previously been covered with political materials and notes written by students. The HKU Students’ Union said on its Telegram channel that, in the early hours of yesterday (the 8th), the university sent staff to remove materials bearing the words “Liberate Hong Kong, Revolution of Our Times” and “Hong Kong independence” from the connecting pillars. The university also told the Students’ Union that the pillars beside the Lennon Wall were not within the union’s management area, and that it therefore had the right to clear them.

立法會調查委員會裁許智峯行為不檢 麥美娟期望餘下會期處理譴責議案
Democratic Party Legislative Council member Hui Chi-fung snatched the mobile phone of a member of the “government paparazzi” outside the chamber in April 2018. Regina Ip of the New People’s Party proposed a censure motion, and the Legislative Council investigation committee has completed its report, finding sufficient grounds for censure. With only today’s and next week’s plenary meetings (15 July) remaining, committee chairwoman Alice Mak of the Federation of Trade Unions hopes meeting time can be used more efficiently to discuss the committee’s report and deal with the censure motion.
