Mainland Scholar Tian Feilong: Hong Kong Alliance Violated Three Local Laws and the National Security Law
全國港澳研究會理事田飛龍在《商報》撰文，指支聯會是勾結外國勢力的顏色革命組織，涉違反本地法例和《港區國安法》，認為香港執法基關應啟動並窮盡本地法律資源加以檢控和懲治，若本地法律無法懲治，則可啟動國安法程序。
Tian Feilong, a council member of the National Hong Kong and Macao Studies Association, wrote in the Hong Kong Commercial Daily that the Hong Kong Alliance was an organisation involved in a colour revolution and colluded with foreign forces, and was suspected of violating local laws and the National Security Law. He said Hong Kong law enforcement agencies should initiate proceedings and exhaust local legal resources to prosecute and punish it; if local laws were unable to do so, procedures under the National Security Law could be initiated.

Carrie Lam Takes Initiative in Asking NPCSC to Disqualify Lawmakers
特區政府按人大常委「決定」，取消公民黨楊岳橋、郭榮鏗、郭家麒，以及梁繼昌四名立法會議員資格後舉行記者會。行政長官林鄭月娥指今次情況特殊，被選舉主任裁定不合參選資格的立法會議員繼續出任，而本地法例無法處理，故需提請人大常委，形容如不處理屬「不負責任」，故她決定「作出承擔」。
A press conference was held after the qualifications of Civic Party lawmakers Alvin Yeung Ngok-kiu, Dennis Kwok Wing-hang, Kwok Ka-ki and Leung Kai-cheong were revoked in accordance with the decision of the NPC Standing Committee. Chief Executive Carrie Lam said the situation was exceptional: LegCo members ruled by returning officers to be ineligible to stand for election had continued to serve, while local laws could not address the matter. She said it was necessary to refer the matter to the NPC Standing Committee, describing failure to deal with it as “irresponsible”, and said she had decided to “take responsibility”.
