I don't see a future for moderates in Hong Kong politics." A moderate reform plan he drew up – under which the public would not be allowed to nominate chief executive candidates – received a cool response from his allies. The barrister said he would think carefully about the next step in his political career after a decision from Beijing that was "more undemocratic than I could imagine". "I thought there would be chance for future dialogue," he said, referring to when pan-democrats were invited for talks with Beijing officials the previous month. "But now, I don't see any chance."

Is there any real chance for anybody in Hong Kong or elsewhere, to seriously think that calling for independence to Hong Kong would succeed in getting full democracy established in Hong Kong?" In 2003, he was a critic of a similar national security law, but has since changed his position and supported the law, claiming that "There are no mass arrests of dissidents and no shutting down of media," despite the shutting down of
