时间地点： 2025年2月8日，伦敦旧皇家铸币厂前（Royal Mint Court），该地为中共拟用于建设欧洲最大“超级大使馆”的选址。 事件概述： 当天下午约2时，来自香港、藏区、维吾尔族以及英国内部各界人士约3000至4000名抗议者涌向旧皇家铸币厂前。他们高举标语、挥舞横幅，强烈反对中共政府在伦敦扩张海外影响力，并担忧新使馆将成为中共“间谍基地”及跨境镇压的工具。
现场经过： 集结与扩散： 抗议活动自下午2时启动，多地组织者协调包车，将来自曼彻斯特、伯明翰、谢菲尔德等地的示威者送往伦敦。现场人群迅速聚集，部分抗议者因人数众多，逐步涌出预定集会区域，导致部分街道短时封闭，交通一度受到影响。 警方介入与秩序维护： 由于现场规模较大，伦敦警方迅速出动多辆警车和上百名警员前来维持秩序。部分示威者因违反公共集会规定被警方短暂拘留，确保现场秩序得以控制。
各界发声： 现场不仅有普通抗议者，也有多位英国国会议员及地方代表到场支持。他们发言指出，中共新使馆不仅有悖于英国民众的安全与自由，更可能危及国家安全。部分议员强调，政府在面对中共压力时应坚守原则，绝不向威权势力低头。
中国民主党英国总部的参与： 值得注意的是，“中国民主党英国总部”也派代表和党员出席了此次示威活动。该组织通过社交平台表示，此次行动是海外华人共同捍卫民主自由的重要举措，其代表在现场重申：“只有坚守自由与民主，我们才能有效抵制中共在海外的扩张行为。”
后续情况： 随着抗议持续数小时，现场秩序在警方的引导下逐步恢复平静，但抗议者的声音和相关讨论在社交媒体上持续发酵。活动主办方表示，后续将继续密切关注英国政府对该使馆建设申请的审议进程，并计划适时组织后续行动以表达民意。

Large-Scale Protest in Front of London’s “Super Embassy” Site – UK Headquarters of China Democracy Party Actively Participates
Date and Location:
On 8 February 2025, a protest was held in front of Royal Mint Court, London, the proposed site for what would be the largest “super embassy” of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in Europe.
Event Overview:
At around 2:00 PM, between 3,000 and 4,000 protesters from various backgrounds—including Hong Kongers, Tibetans, Uyghurs, and other communities across the UK—gathered in front of Royal Mint Court. Holding placards and banners, they strongly opposed the CCP’s expansion of influence in London, voicing concerns that the new embassy could serve as a Chinese intelligence hub and a tool for transnational repression.
Protest Developments:
• Mobilisation and Crowd Growth:
The protest began at 2:00 PM, with organisers coordinating transport from Manchester, Birmingham, Sheffield, and other cities, bringing demonstrators to London. The crowd quickly expanded, and due to the large turnout, some protesters spilled beyond the designated protest area, leading to temporary street closures and minor disruptions to local traffic.
• Police Intervention and Order Maintenance:
Given the large-scale demonstration, London police swiftly deployed multiple patrol cars and over a hundred officers to maintain order. Some protesters were briefly detained for violating public assembly regulations, ensuring that overall order was controlled.
• Voices from Various Sectors:
The protest was attended not only by ordinary demonstrators but also by several British Members of Parliament and local representatives, who openly expressed support for the movement. In their speeches, they highlighted the risks posed by the new Chinese embassy, warning that it could threaten public freedoms and national security in the UK. Some MPs urged the government to stand firm against CCP influence, emphasising that Britain must not yield to authoritarian pressure.
Participation of the UK Headquarters of China Democracy Party:
A notable aspect of the protest was the active participation of the UK Headquarters of China Democracy Party, which sent representatives and party members to the demonstration. The organisation stated on social media that this protest was a vital effort by overseas Chinese to defend democracy and freedom. At the scene, its representatives reaffirmed:
“Only by upholding freedom and democracy can we effectively resist the CCP’s overseas expansion.”
Follow-up Developments:
The protest lasted several hours, and order was gradually restored under police guidance. However, the demonstrators’ voices and discussions about the event continued to spread across social media. Organisers stated that they would closely monitor the British government’s review process regarding the embassy construction application and plan further actions to reflect public opposition in due course.
