As protesters in Hong Kong continue to surround two key government buildings the territory’s Chief Executive CY Leung says he has no intention of stepping down.<br /><br />He was speaking just minutes before a midnight ultimatum for him to go expired. <br /><br />Leung warned of serious consequences if the protesters attempt to take over government buildings but he also said one of his representatives would hold a meeting with students:<br /><br />“I am now appointing the Chief Secretary to represent the Hong Kong government to meet with representatives of the Hong Kong Federation of Students to discuss constitutional development matters”.<br /><br />Students have threatened to escalate the protests unless their demands are met, but not everyone in Hong Kong is behind them. <br /><br />Some groups have launched what they call the Blue Ribbon Movement to demand an end to the protests.
