Hong Kong legislators have rejected controversial proposals to change the way the territory chooses its leader, with a dramatic end to the debate on the reforms.

A voice called out asking to halt the proceedings with just minutes to spare. The Head of the Council declined. Pro-government lawmakers walked out in protest. As a result, the controversial political reform plan failed by a wide margin.”

But all parties played down any hopes of a breakthrough. Christ Morris reports. “Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis has said we are bringing no new proposals to the meeting. So he is saying, as the Greek government has been saying for some time now, what we need to do is to discuss this at the very highest level，in other words, leaders of Euro Zone countries,  Alexis Tsipras, Angela Merkel, Francoise Hollande, sitting down and sorting it out at a political level rather at a technical one. But on the other side, the Euro Zone countries are saying there’s no point in politicians sitting down, if there isn’t any technical document in their hands to start with.”
