On the overall question of a British passport giving right of abode to everybody else, I have to say that while I have argued about this, just as David Wilson before me argued about it, both the main British political parties are adamant in turning the idea down, so I don't want to give any people false hopes on this issue, it would be unfair of me to do so. But I will continue to speak up on this issue which for me, as for you, is a moral issue and not just a question of practical politics.
Question (Mr Leung): When you first came to Hong Kong, if I remember correctly, you seem to have promised Hong Kong people that in a very short while we would turn primary education into a unisessional kind of education but it has not been realised. I place a lot of emphasis on the uni-sessional education for primary students and I have tried to get in contact with Mr Cheung Man-kwong. But I have not been able to phone-in to RTHK. And then at the Metro Station I had a chance to talk to Mr Cheung last night. He said that, well I have been working on this and he said that just before the day before I talked to you I was fighting for this at the Legislative Council; it is just that the Hong Kong Government is putting in hurdles not asking the people to do this. So is it the Governor or Mr Cheung who is not doing this? Before you go, Mr Governor, I would like to hear an answer from you and I hope that this would really be materialised.
Governor: First of all, Mr Cheung Man-kwong is a very committed member of the Legislative Council and I know that he has been working very hard for additional resources for education and he certainly can't be held to blame for the fact that we have not been moving ahead as fast on uni-sessional primary education as you would like and many others would like. We have actually been investing more in education. I think it has gone up by about 25% after allowing for the rise in prices in the last four years. We have been ensuring that most of our new schools built for primary education are unisessional, and we have been concentrating on what I think are the biggest priorities in most people's minds and that is increasing the number of teachers and trying to reduce the ratios so that there are more teachers per pupil than was the case in the past. But you are quite right to lay so much emphasis on primary education. We do have to do more as resources allow and as we are able to produce the actual school buildings to meet your objective. It is an important one. I know how important primary education is, both my grandparents were head teachers of primary schools and it is where the foundation for everybody's schooling is laid.
Question: Recently, it seems like there is a lot of noise talking about the freedom of expression. But on the other hand we have heard a lot on the slogan of 'rule of law with common sense'. But then in 1919 a social justice of the United States Supreme Court, Oliver Wendel Holmes Junior (phonetic) once gave his opinion in a case saying that the most stringent protection of free speech would not protect a man falsely shouting "Fire!" in a theatre and causing a panic.
