China's ambassador to the UK: We can quell any HK unrest swiftly

That doesn't sound like things are going to end well

• Will not let protesters drag HK down a "dangerous abyss"
• HK protesters' moves show signs of terrorism

With the message here, they can't be clearer on what their strategy is to tackle the continued protests in Hong Kong. Let's hope that eventually there will be some civil resolution to all of this - however unlikely it may appear now.
