Jennifer Anne Eagleton Facebook post
on 8 November 2013

“Yesterday I was filmed answering certain questions on HK's political development for a new website, "Designing Democracy" put out by Law Prof. Simon Young and others at HKU. The site will enable people to "design" a system for political system for Hong Kong, or at least it will help them make up their minds. I think that it will be launched in November sometimes. I was part of an ad hoc group fine-tuning the site before it goes public”.

 “I hope that the people "up north" don't take note”.
