studio is bad about cheesiness around a expert of the battles mountains to do it in a bell and mr boche welcome to the studio thank you for coming in at the outset can i just ask you is this protest doomed to fail i'm afraid it's not going to get to a good result what is failure here i don't think the protesters in hong kong are out to actually stop the no it's not about the law it's about them voicing their discontent and this discontent is really against the communist party of china they are saying you don't represent us and we don't q one q to meddle in hong kong's affairs as much as you have done over the last couple of years but that is not something that they're going to be very successful in but they make their point strongly but even if they're make this point and they've made this point repeatedly in the past 5 years beijing hasn't budged an inch where does this end. that is the crucial question and i don't think it's going to end well for the people in hong kong you've seen the pictures where they photograph people they've gone after the last generation of protesters really ha
