@WilliamJHague says: "The evidence presented in this report is of a wide range of human rights abuses: torture, arbitrary arrest & forced confessions accompanied by a clampdown on freedom of religion & the incarceration of huge numbers of people in Xinjiang/

He adds: "We should condemn such abuses anywhere in the world, and China cannot be an exception to that. However we conduct our relations with China in the future it is important to have our eyes fully open. This report will help to open them”.

#HongKong's last Governor Lord Patten says: "This deeply researched and exceptionally well informed report gives a terrifying view of the cruelty of Xi Jinping’s brutal regime./

He adds: "To try to preserve its grip on power the Chinese Communist Party has assaulted any sign of dissent & has set about building a totalitarian surveillance state beyond George Orwell’s imaginings. The report demonstrates exactly why we must be on our guard ... ”

Sir Malcolm Rifkind says: "This report ... should be read in every Foreign Ministry around the world. If only it could also be read by the Chinese people. They would realise the degree to which millions of their fellow citizens are ... persecuted by a cruel Communist Party.”

@TomTugendhat, Chair of @CommonsForeign, says: “This compelling report draws on extensive evidence to audit the human rights situation in China, which has sadly become worse and clearer in recent years/

Abhorrent practices such as the imprisonment & torture of dissidents, mass surveillance, organ harvesting & slave labour shows #CCP for what it is. It is clear that the Golden Era is over & UK & our allies need to rethink our relations with China’s dictatorship”

Lord Cormack: “This carefully compiled & thoroughly researched report makes very disturbing reading. It is ... a damning indictment of the treatment of persecuted minorities by a nation which appears to have ambitions of world domination. I hope it will be widely read.”

And former Conservative Party Leader @MPIainDS says: “This powerful and well-researched report paints a terrifying picture of the Chinese Communist Party regime’s brutal repression./

There have been other reports on specific issues, such as the Uyghurs, Tibet and Hong Kong, but very few that provide such a comprehensive analysis of the litany of human rights violations affecting everyone living under this cruel regime./

From slavery to forced organ harvesting, surveillance to torture, genocide to persecution of all religious groups, disappearances, arbitrary detention and forced televised confessions, this report has unearthed a catalogue of atrocities that demand urgent attention/

The UK Government must lead the free world by sending a clear message that China must stop these abusive behaviours. I hope our government will study this report’s findings and recommendations and act accordingly," says @MPIainDS

So join us on Weds 13 January at 19.30 GMT to hear more about the report from me, @MPIainDS, @nathanlawkc, @MahmutRahima, @SimonCh15198572 and @tengbiao
