Lord Patten - Governor of Hong Kong, 1992-1997

Sarah Montague speaks to Lord Patten, who pledged 25 years ago: 'Now Hong Kong people are to run Hong Kong... that is the unshakeable destiny' and asks if that promise has been broken.

When the UK handed Hong Kong back to China 25 years ago, the last words of the departing British Governor to the people of the territory were: 'Now Hong Kong people are to run Hong Kong. That is the promise. And that is the unshakeable destiny'. Sarah Montague speaks to Lord Patten, the man who made that pledge, to ask if that promise has been broken and if the UK could have done more to honour it?
