What is "demosisto"

Demosistō is a centre-left pro-democracy political party in Hong Kong established on 10 April 2016. Led by the former leaders of Scholarism, Joshua Wong, Agnes Chow and Oscar Lai and former secretary-general of the Hong Kong Federation of Students (HKFS) Nathan Law, the two student activist groups which played an instrumental role in the 79-day occupy protests known as the Umbrella Revolution in 2014.

The party advocates a referendum to determine Hong Kong's sovereignty after 2047, when the One Country, Two Systems principle as promised in the Sino-British Joint Declaration and the Hong Kong Basic Law is supposed to expire. It also plans to contest the 2016 Legislative Council election.
