Hong Kong extradition bill suspended for now

The bill is suspended for now, but many protesters now want it to be scrapped altogether, and are even calling for Carrie Lam’s resignation from office. I wonder if the increasing demands will lead to the mainland Chinese government taking more drastic measures. Discuss *grabs popcorn*

The mainland government will push again, this time with either incentives or force.

Even if Lam resigns, a representative of the affluent mainland-china supporters will be elected once more.
