劉慧卿帶青年參觀國安展爆罵戰：事後有講解47人案
Former Democratic Party chairwoman Emily Lau recently visited the National Security Exhibition Hall at the Hong Kong Museum of History with her protégés and young friends. After Lau posted photos on social media, a war of words broke out, with some users questioning whether she had changed her position. Another former Democratic Party chair, Lee Wing-tat, defended Lau. Lau told InMediaHK that after the visit she also explained to her protégés and the youths details about people convicted, remanded in custody and imprisoned under the Safeguarding National Security Law in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, particularly the 47-person case involving the democratic primary: “It’s not that I didn’t mention it. I also believe my protégés will know how to think for themselves—they are adults.”
民主黨前主席劉慧卿日前與其徒弟及青年朋友，到香港歷史博物館參觀國家安全展覽廳。劉慧卿在社交網站貼出照片後爆發罵戰，有網民質疑她改變立場，另一前民主黨主席李永達為劉慧卿護航。劉慧卿向《獨媒》表示，自己在參觀過後亦向一眾徒弟及青年講解因《港區國安法》被定罪、還柙及監禁的人士的詳情，尤其民主派初選47人案：「我唔係冇講㗎，我亦相信一班徒弟都會識諗，佢哋成年人嚟。」

程展緯再發起「勞工研究」眾籌 盼連結更多人作小額支持
Artist Luke Ching Chin Wai, who has long focused on labour issues, has launched another crowdfunding campaign, hoping to raise $200,000 for an “Autonomous Labour Research Project”. Over the past few years, Luke Ching Chin Wai has repeatedly taken frontline jobs to promote corporate reform, including helping MTR cleaners secure higher wages and campaigning for chairs for supermarket cashiers.
Cheng said the campaign has currently reached half of its target, but much of the funding consists of large donations. “This trust is both a great encouragement and a great pressure for me,” he said. He hopes to attract more people to support him with donations of no more than $200: “I hope the remaining $100,000 to be raised is not merely a sum of money, but energy gained by connecting with more people—giving me the courage to begin an unknown possibility, and letting me know that the things I care about are not only cared about by me.”
向來關注勞工議題的藝術家程展緯再次發起眾籌 ，希望籌到20萬進行「自主勞動研究計劃」。過去幾年，程展緯曾多次入職基層工作推動企業改革，包括協助港鐵清潔工提升工資、為超市收銀員爭取椅子等。
程表示，目前眾籌目標已經達半，但當中有不少大額資助，「這信任對我很是鼓勵也很是壓力」。他期望能吸納更多人以不多於200元的捐款金額支持他：「我希望餘下要籌的十萬元不衹是一嚿錢，而是與更多人連結而得的能量，叫我有勇氣開展一個未知的可能，叫我知道我關心的事不單是我關心的。」

民間農地普查｜研北都1200公頃農地 16％活躍產量佔全港四分一 倡設農業優先區
Most of Hong Kong’s farmland is concentrated in the North District and Yuen Long, overlapping with the development area of the Northern Metropolis. The Development Bureau recently told The Collective that 160 hectares of the 3,000 hectares of land planned for development in the Northern Metropolis come from “actively cultivated farmland”, meaning land where farming is actually taking place. The specific locations of the affected land have not been disclosed. A farm in the Northern Metropolis that has been operating for 13 years is concerned that its land may be resumed.
The government’s data on the locations and distribution of farmland are currently incomplete. A civic group, together with experts and academics, spent six months conducting the first civilian survey of the current state of agricultural areas, examining land use and environmental conditions in the Northern Metropolis’s main agricultural areas. The survey found that of the approximately 1,200 hectares of farmland in the Northern Metropolis, more than 40%—about 493 hectares—was arable farmland. Of this, 186.4 hectares was active farmland, with average daily agricultural production accounting for one-quarter of Hong Kong’s total. Brownfield sites covered 701.3 hectares, or nearly 60% of the total. After reviewing farmland management and use, the team proposed designating 340 hectares across seven sites as agricultural priority zones to protect farmland and encourage production, in line with the Northern Metropolis development principle of “urban-rural integration”.
香港農地大部分集中在北區和元朗一帶，與北部都會區發展範圍重疊。發展局日前回覆《集誌社》稱，北都發展 3000 公頃土地，有 160 公頃來自「常耕農地」，即實際有耕種活動土地；涉地具體位置未明，有經營 13 載、位處北都的農場憂慮被收地。
現時政府有關農地位置、分布數據並不全面，有民間團體聯同專家學者耗時半年，進行首次民間農區現況普查，研究北都主要農業地帶的使用和環境狀況。調查發現約 1200 公頃北都農地中，整體逾四成、即約 493 公頃為可耕農地，當中有 186.4 公頃屬活躍農地，日均農產量佔全港四分一；而棕地則達 701.3 公頃，佔整體近六成。團隊綜合農地管理和使用狀況，倡議在七個選址的 340 公頃用地，制定農業優先區保護農地、鼓勵生產，以符合北都發展「城鄉共融」原則。

7.21 五年．元朗｜西鐵站獻花默站 十多人快閃舉五一手勢
Today marks the fifth anniversary of the Yuen Long 7.21 incident. On that day, white-clad men attacked members of the public with rattan sticks and other weapons at Yuen Long West Rail Station and elsewhere. The government condemned the white-clad men at the time with terms including “lawless and outrageous” and “rioters”. Five years on, the official narrative has gradually shifted to saying that both sides were “evenly matched”; non-white-clad people, including former Legislative Council member Lam Cheuk-ting, have been arrested and charged. This afternoon, three uniformed police officers patrolled the station together. A man wearing black was checked at the station. Around dusk, members of the public arrived to lay flowers and observe a silent vigil. In the evening, more than 10 people briefly flashed a “5-1”, or five-finger, gesture.
今日是元朗 7.21 事件五周年，當日在的元朗西鐵站等地，白衣人曾以籐件等武器襲擊市民，政府曾以「目無法紀、令人髮指」、「暴徒」等字眼譴責白衣人，五年下來，官方漸漸指雙方「勢鈞力敵，旗鼓相當」、前立法會議員林卓廷等非白衣人被捕、被控。今日下午，在元朗西鐵站，有軍裝警三人一組，在站內巡邏。有穿黑衫褲男子西鐵站被查。黃昏時份，有市民到場獻花、默站。晚上，十多人快閃舉五一，或五字手勢。

【七一】有市民崇光百貨外默站後 入閘港鐵前遭便衣警要求入房搜身
On July 1, 2021, Leung Kin-fai stabbed a police officer outside Sogo in Causeway Bay before dying by suicide. Police had deployed a large number of officers in Causeway Bay in each of the past two years, but tonight’s police presence was noticeably smaller than in previous years, with many officers deployed in plain clothes. The Independent Media did not see anyone present flowers. At 10:10 p.m., a woman dressed in black stood silently outside Sogo. About 10 minutes later, she entered Causeway Bay station, but just before passing through the gates, plainclothes officers approached and asked to take her to a room inside the station for a body search.
在2021年的七一，梁健輝於銅鑼灣崇光百貨外刺傷警員後自殺身亡，警方過去兩年均重兵駐守銅鑼灣，惟今晚的警力明顯較往年減少，不少警員僅以便衣上陣。《獨媒》未見有人到場獻花，至晚上10時10分，一名黑衣黑褲的女士在崇光百貨對出默站。她在約10分鐘後進入銅鑼灣站，惟將近入閘之際，有便衣警員上前，要求將她帶入站內房間搜身。

7.1｜長者舉牌示威 女長毛一人遊行 網媒記者被搜身
Today is 1 July, the first 7.1 since the passage of Article 23 of the Basic Law. Since 500,000 people took to the streets in 2003 to oppose Article 23, the Civil Human Rights Front organised a 7.1 march every year. Following its ban in 2020, there is no 7.1 march this year either. This afternoon, armoured vehicles and large numbers of police were deployed to Causeway Bay. An online media reporter was found to be carrying a yellow-shop calendar card, and police told him to “handle it himself”. In the evening, four people including Ying Chi (Med) Lee lingered outside Sogo. They were searched by police when they left and were subsequently released.
今日是 7 月 1 日，是《基本法》 23 條通過後的首個 7.1。自 2003 年 50 萬人上街反對 23 條開始，每年民陣都會舉辨的 7.1 遊行， 2020 年被禁後，至今年也沒有 7.1遊行。今日下午，裝甲車、大派警員進駐銅鑼灣。有網媒記者被搜出黃店日曆卡，警員指示他「自行處理」。晚上，李盈姿等四人，在崇光百貨外逗留，他們離開時，被警方搜查，其後放行。

前香港公民社會工作者發布國安法觀察報告，
Four years after the Hong Kong National Security Law came into force, a group of former Hong Kong civil society workers has released an observation report of more than 200 pages. Hong Kong people have still not given up, continuing research and small acts of resistance in a dark environment. Researchers on the report team gave us an exclusive interview but declined to be named, citing concerns about future risks: “We feel that doing this report is acceptable for now, but could the government, after some time, use a charge that we cannot currently imagine to take action against you?”
Four years after the Hong Kong National Security Law came into force, the group of former Hong Kong civil society workers released today (1 July) a report titled “The ‘National Security System’ in Hong Kong — An Observation of the Implementation of the Hong Kong National Security Law, 2020–2023” (hereafter, the observation report). It summarises and analyses nearly 4,000 news reports, seeking to identify changes in the Hong Kong government’s governance structure and governing logic since the National Security Law was passed.
香港《國安法》落地4年，一群前香港公民社會工作者發布一份長達200多頁的觀察報告，港人仍不放棄，在黑暗的環境中堅持研究和微小的抵抗。報告團隊的研究人員接受我們的獨家專訪，但不願具名，由於擔心未來風險：「我們做這份報告，現在覺得可以，會不會一段時間之後，政府會用一個我們現在沒辦法想像的罪名去處置你？」

娛樂牌風波｜同志驕傲月市集轉工廈舉行 入場需登記 參加者：好似變返得自己人知
Local LGBT organisation Big Love Alliance had originally planned to hold a three-day Pride Month market from yesterday (29 June), spanning 1 July. However, the event was halted after the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department notified the organisers that they did not hold an entertainment establishment licence. The organisers changed plans and moved the event today (30 June) to an industrial building in San Po Kong, where entry requires prior registration. The smaller event includes thematic sharing sessions and performances.
After the event was moved from a shopping mall in Tsim Sha Tsui to an industrial building, Big Love Alliance founder Francis said he found the venue through a friend’s introduction. Taking into account the venue, the availability of guests for the thematic sharing sessions and the schedules of the performing groups, they ultimately decided to hold the event on the final day of Pride Month.
本地同志組織「大同」原訂昨（29日）起，舉辦一連三日、橫跨 7.1 的「同志驕傲月市集」，然而，活動因臨時被食環通知未持有娛樂場所牌照需煞停。主辦方變陣，今（30日）移師在新蒲崗一工業大廈，舉辦需預先登記才能進場的小型活動，涵蓋專題分享及表演等。
活動從尖沙咀商場轉陣至工廈，「大同」創辦人Francis 表示，經好友介紹後覓得場地，而考慮到場地、專題分享嘉賓、表演團體檔期，最終決定在「同志驕傲月」最後一日舉辦活動。

同志驕傲月｜婚策公司招募 10 對性小眾情侶 贊助辦婚禮 由美國監禮人視像證婚
June is Pride Month each year. A wedding planning company is collaborating with a Hong Kong hotel and organisations to sponsor weddings for 10 couples of different sexual orientations or transgender couples. Hong Kong and US marriage celebrants will be connected live for a mass marriage registration ceremony and weddings on June 25. The organisers said the event aims to raise public awareness of and support for the rights of the LGBTQ+ community. The selected couples need only pay a symbolic fee of HK$2 to receive a legally valid overseas marriage registration service. The organisers said that if more than 10 couples apply, priority will be given to older couples and people with financial needs, in the hope that everyone, regardless of wealth or age, can enjoy the protection of marriage.
每年 6 月為同志驕傲月 Pride Month，有婚禮策劃公司與本港酒店及機構合作，贊助 10 對不同性傾向或跨性別情侶，在香港與美國婚姻監禮人實時連線，在 6 月 25 日進行集體婚姻登記及舉行婚禮。主辦方指，是次活動希望喚起社會大眾對 LGBTQ+ 社群權益的關注和支持，獲選中的情侶只需支付港幣 2 元的象徵式收費，便可獲得海外合法婚姻登記服務。主辦方表示，如超過 10 對情侶報名，將會優先考慮較年長的情侶、有經濟需要的人士，以實現不論貧富、不論年紀，均能受婚姻所保障。

梁凌杰逝世五週年 市民太古廣場外悼念
Today marks the fifth anniversary of Leung Ling-kit’s death. As evening approached, the number of mourners at the scene gradually increased. Some brought flowers and stood silently, but did not leave them behind to avoid their being cleared away as “rubbish” by Food and Environmental Hygiene Department staff in previous years. A Police Public Relations Branch media liaison team and plain-clothes officers were on standby nearby, recording the situation.
今日是梁凌杰逝世五週年，踏入傍晚，現場悼念人數漸增，有人攜帶鮮花到場默站，未有放下，避免與過往數年被食環署人員視為「垃圾」清走。附近有警察傳媒聯絡隊和便衣戒備，並錄影現場情況。
