Imagine all the Post-its: Hong Kong protesters come together with 'Lennon Walls'

23 Sept 01:56 Key points summarised by AI

Hong Kong protesters are creating 'Lennon Walls' – extensive mosaics of colorful Post-it notes and messages – across the territory to symbolize their widespread demonstrations.
Named after the original John Lennon Wall in Prague, these walls serve as a public platform for expressing political grievances, calls for democracy, and solidarity against a controversial extradition bill.
The messages on the walls range from slogans like 'Free Hong Kong' to personal notes, aiming to remind people of the movement's spirit and values.
Despite facing opposition and attempts to remove them, protesters are actively guarding and preserving the Lennon Walls, showcasing their resilience and commitment to the ongoing fight for freedoms.

President Macron condemned widespread rioting and looting during nationwide protests, blaming far-left activists and criminals for the "unrestrained violence" and vowing accountability for those who "sought to bring down the Republic."
Over 2,400 arrests were made as protests against rising living costs and poor school conditions escalated, causing extensive damage to public buildings and businesses in cities like Paris, Limoges (where City Hall burned), Marseille, and Lyon.
The unrest, which organizers hoped would revive the "yellow vest" movement, saw political leaders trade blame, with Macron instructing prefects to protect public buildings and potentially ban future protests to prevent further disorder.
