Trade unions and student unions held a "referendum" today (June 20th) on organising a general strike against the controversial National Security Law that critics say will undermine the semi-autonomous territory's legal and political institutions. <br /><br />A strike order could only be approved if 60,000 members approved the action but unions holding the vote totalled barely 14,000 members.<br /><br />Joshua Wong could be seen in the vicinity, campaigning for his own nomination in the pan-democrats primary elections.<br /><br />Meanwhile, China has announced a preliminary draft of the law could be the object of public consultations before being adopted.
