china correspondent stephen mcdonell is inside hong kong airport and a short while ago sent us this update... this is the scene here at hong kong internationalgers arrive they are greeted by chants in favour of democracy, criticising the government in hong kong and also the police. as you can see, there are still many black clad activists here, but fewer than before. word came through that the police were going to engage in mass arrests and there was something of an exodus. now i'd say there are only around a quarter the number of protesters in the building than we had, say, an hour or two ago. they have some reason to be concerned, because the government in beijing has accused this movement of sowing the seeds of terrorism in this city. imagine if you're arrested on terrorism charges, that could mean having no lawyer, or no lawyer for quite some time, also being held in detention for a much longer period without trial. and yet despite these threats, despite the increased hardline nature of the police as they go in with baton charges much more quickly and with much more force to try and arrest these protesters, the resilience of this movemen
