Former Hong Kong leader CY Leung refuses to back down on chief executive election row, even after renewed resistance from Carrie Lam

• Continuing a week-long back-and-forth, incumbent leader Lam has again disputed Leung’s assertion that the chief executive can be legally selected without a vote or amending the law
• But Leung, in an exclusive interview with the Post, still refuses to concede the point, warning going ahead with the usual vote ‘could cause a lot of problems’
