HONG KONG: Clashes broke out in Hong Kong's legislature for the second time this month on Monday (May 18) as the city's pro-democracy camp tried to scupper a controversial law that bans insulting China's national anthem.
Fighting erupted in the House Committee, a body that helps scrutinise bills, with protesting pro-democracy lawmakers dragged from the chamber by security guards and scuffles between rival camps flared up on the chamber floor.
