Opinion | Starmer should develop balanced strategy On June 13, when the UK Labour Party issued its manifesto for the general election on July 4, its focus was domestic issues. This was understandable, as elections are won and lost on bread-and-butter issues. There were, however, some references to foreign policy, albeit nothing too beefy. Signed by the Labour Party leader (now prime minister), Sir Keir Starmer, the manifesto committed the party to working with the US, supporting NATO, enhancing the AUKUS pact, and backing Ukraine in its conflict with Russia, so no surprises there.

Opinion | Court of Final Appeal: Overseas judges must prioritize service over politics The rule of law has always been fundamental to the success story that is modern Hong Kong, and its custodian is the judiciary. So long as its legal system is protected by capable, independent and professional judges, the city has a bright future.

Opinion | Gregory May: Read the Basic Law and respect the rule of law Diplomats discharge various functions in the course of their duty.

Opinion | City must expedite proposed mandatory reporting of child abuse The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) recognizes and protects children's fundamental freedoms and inherent rights. The UN adopted it in 1989, and Hong Kong became a signatory in 1994. It requires the parties to take all available measures to protect and fulfill children's rights (Art.4), and there is a positive obligation to create an environment where children can grow up safely and achieve their full potential.
