British Prime Minister Tony Blair got no respite from anti-war activists during his short stay in Hong Kong, with several local groups staging protests. About 40 demonstrators from eight non-governmental organisations gathered outside the British consulate chanting slogans and bearing placards saying Mr Blair was not welcome in Hong Kong. The protest, organised by the No War Coalition Hong Kong, labelled Mr Blair 'one of the culprits of a war of aggression in Iraq'. 'Hong Kong people are democratic and peace-loving, and Tony Blair's integrity as a political person is questionable,' said Rey Asis, a spokesman for the coalition. 'He does not have any moral or political authority to call for democracy in Hong Kong.' The coalition, made up of groups including the Asian Human Rights Commission, the Hong Kong Federation of Students and the April 5th Action Group, handed a large postcard to British consulate staff urging Mr Blair to leave Hong Kong. A more dramatic protest was held in front of the Cheung Kong Centre in Central shortly before Mr Blair was due to meet property tycoon Li Ka-shing there. Veteran protester Lui Yuk-lin, also known as the 'Female Long Hair' after the well-known Hong Kong activist, lay writhing on the floor outside the building pretending she was ill and had fainted. But security guards cleared her away long before Mr Blair arrived.
