HSBC and bank accounts in Hong Kong

Motion Text

That this House notes reports that HSBC Bank has closed accounts of one of the few opposition parties remaining in Hong Kong, the League of Social Democrats, limiting the pro-democracy group from legitimate fundraising; finds this reprehensible following the same bank's backing of the Beijing Government's draconian measures to oppose pro-democracy groups in Hong Kong; and calls on the Government to hold discussions with other democratically-elected governments to coordinate an international response to the bank's unacceptable actions.
