  1. Taiwan's recall elections will be held on 26 July with 24 KMT legislators subject to recall. Hsinchu Mayor Ann Kao (TPP) is also subject to recall

    A successful recall vote requires a majority of votes in favour and at least 25% of the total voters in that district in favour.

  2. Taiwan's mass recall campaign (大罷免) is being driven by grassroots activism, not the DPP as some claim. Some of the campaign's supporters are voters from the pan-blue camp who are disappointed with the pro-CCP actions of some legislators

  3. A detailed update of Taiwan's great recall campaign (大罷免) by Frozen Garlic. It's the first time Taiwan has had such a large recall campaign so it could produce some interesting results

    "In short, I don’t think it is impossible that the DPP could find itself with a majority in the legislature in November."

  4. J. Michael Cole's missive on Taiwan's political turmoil. Civil society is united in its fight against a disloyal opposition

    "...most Taiwanese, whether they vote blue or green (or white), are united in the values, mores, and political freedoms that buttress their country — Taiwan or the Republic of China — and how this distinguishes their society from the People’s Republic of China."

  5. The song is called "Stand up and fight" (站鬥陣). It is dedicated to the volunteers defending Taiwan's democracy by collecting signatures to recall the legislators who have shown a disregard for the constitution and legislative process

  6. 2025 will be the year of the "great recall" (大罷免) in Taiwan. Recall campaigns are underway in 51 legislative seats.

    It's worth noting that, on the pan-green side at least, this is a citizen-led movement not party-led.

  7. K-pop fans have been part of the Bluebird Movement protests in Taiwan. Fans identify not just with their idols, but also with the political environment in which they exist

    A slogan at one of the protests said, "Democracy must be upheld so that star-chasing can be an everyday practice", arguing that democracy is what gives everyone the freedom to like and show support for their favourite artists

  8. A good summary by @brian_hioe of the unfolding constitutional crisis in Taiwan. The KMT is seeking to use its power in the legislature to hollow out the central government and block the functioning of the Constitutional Court which would decide whether the new laws are constitutional

  9. 🐦 Bluebirds in Banqiao

    Tonight there is a Bluebird Movement rally in Banqiao, New Taipei. The purpose of the rally is to collect signatures for a petition to recall Yeh Yuan-chih (葉元之), a KMT legislator for Banqiao District.

  10. 趁出國前衝一波,國民黨真是吃相難看,如朋友所說,傅先生完全是中共典型地痞流氓的打手樣子。

    如果台灣選出的民代卻拿中國的資源好處和酬庸,如果不只是「心向中國」,而是被以統戰的方式來弱化、亂搞台灣的民主制度,那麼這樣的民代是我們不能容忍的。

    目前制度內的方法尚未窮盡,但集結在街頭就是一份贊聲和壓力,希望大家在力所能及的範圍內,以各種行動現身和支援。

    另外,空戰部分感覺小英下台後,民進黨弱了許多—究竟正在發生什麼議題?下一步行動是什麼?往往不夠清楚;這也是大家必須再一起多多努力的部分。

    運動比氣長,大家再撐一下,還沒到 final call. 💪 #冬季青鳥 #BlueBirdMovement

  11. DPP is strongly fighting against KMT now. KMT, the conservative majority party in Taiwan parliament, has aroused another big wave in streets becoz they’re eroding TW’s democracy due to the instructions from China.

    轉自沛憶:今天我們一起在立法院 守護台灣

    國民黨在國會搞戒嚴、一黨獨大
    不是正在,是已經中共化
    現在我們比10年前更強壯了

    台灣民主不能被國民黨沒收
    因為破壞台灣,正是中國共產黨要的

    今天,一起來立法院,守護台灣
