well usually nic district council elections don't attract a huge amount of fanfare but i'm sure you can tell from what's going on just behind me this year is very different there are huge queues snaking along this path just behind me with voters hoping to cause that ballots in this vote which is seen by so many as a litmus test of the popularity of authorities here and of the pro-democracy movement young rests that's been raging for almost 6 months now now we've just heard that by lunchtime the voter turnout has exceeded the total voter turnout the last 8 straight council elections in 2015 now it's possible that there has been an early search people concerned that the violence of war clashes could stop them casting their ballots but this really is a significant sign of just how many people have been compelled to cast their ballots today on this referendum if you like on this protest movement and. what is at stake here is some. impure legislative terms. well for both sides the pro-democracy camp and the pro stablish macam this is about sending a message now it has to be pointed out to th

i'm called aspen welcome to the program polls are now closed in hong kong's district council election and while we await results one thing is certain this vote was historic turnout hit nearly 70 percent that's higher than in any election in the territories history it's being seen as both a test of support for embattled chief executive kerry lamb and as a referendum on the pro-democracy movement that has rocked the city for close to 6 months now. the pro-democracy movement urged people to vote and they turned out in record numbers these elections are the closest thing hong kong ors have to direct representation and nearly half a year of unrest has left many feeling that enough is enough. people have been long long you know your current. prime cooperate. is worth of my mortal thank you. this and to do was to the people. hong kong's chief executive kerry lam also encouraged voters to turn out and appealed for a smooth and peaceful voting we are facing an extremely challenging situation in all the nice in this year's elections but i'm pleased to say that with the concerted efforts of all

this story goes beyond one provider, city or council.nregulated homes. and you are exposing their voices, which i can only hope means that it's listened to in a different way. it's time for whitehall to wake up to this. it's a disgrace. if action isn't taken on the back of this programme, then we're colluding and letting groomers, predatory paedophiles go after those children, and that's our responsibility and that's why i find it so upsetting. you could be running a full—on crack operation in a car home and wouldn't no—one know anything. some of the young people we spoke to across the year had positive experiences, but most wanted the care system to change. what should happen to these homes? they need to be watched more, they need to have inspectors and professional people who actually know what they're doing going in there, checking there and regulating the thing. i thought being in care would give me some sort of childhood. they're saying that they're there to support you. it's a lie. it's a recruiting game. they're going to put kids

the district council normally focuses just on local welfare infrastructure really vocal matches but i think this time it matters a lot because of 2 reasons 1st of all this is a way for hong kong people to voice their opinion to voice their discontent or to exercise their rights because hong kong people can choose their district council is directly and this is democracy. this is actually what many have been asking for in the protests and secondly the council does have a little impact on the political landscape in hong kong because the chief executive is elected by 1200 members of election committee and in that committee actually a 100 of them are from the district council directly so in that sense. people can be represented directly through their district council is of course this is just a very small number but it is highly symbolic now you are yourself from hong kong and you've been following the events going on there what is the mood now now that the vote is happening the mood is very tense it's not like there are a lot of violence industry on the streets actually how has been brief

rarely has a district council election been the focus of so much attention but in hong kong more people have already voted in today's poll than in any election in its history and polls well they haven't even closed yet the vote is seen as both a test of carried out as pro beijing and government and as a referendum on the pro-democracy movement that has rocked the city for months now . on conus are used to queuing for restrooms conventions but not for an election especially not on a sunday morning and even before the polling stations open. moments after the q. started to form came a familiar face pro-democracy leader aung he himself was sparked from running this for a cause for your action is that you action in more coverage based on more district or constitution issue is that overall hong kong political system reform but i still urge people both in the action to show i want this called head to beijing. many voters see these local elections as a referendum on whether the public still supports to protests hong kong has been rocked by almost 6 months of unrest some of it violent but calm r
