United Kingdom: Chinese Tourist in London, “I Support You!”

(Minghui.org) In front of the British Museum in London, Falun Dafa practitioners have been telling tourists about the practice and raising awareness about the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)’s persecution of cultivators who follow Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance for a long time.

More and more tourists from China have been moved by practitioners’ kindness and have expressed their support at this truth-clarification site. Many have agreed to quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations to sever ties with the Party and avoid guilt by association. Some have even started practicing Falun Dafa. Here are four recent occurrences.

Tourist from Shanghai: “I Support You!”

Seven elderly tourists from China passed by the site in front of the British Museum on May 26, 2025. They stood some distance away until one of them who appeared to be in his 60s came over to a practitioner, smiled, and introduced himself. “I am from Shanghai,” he said. “I saw this in the United States, too. I support you all!”

He had just finished saying that when one of the ladies in the group walked over and attempted to persuade him to leave. He waved her away, saying, “You can leave. I just want to chat with them.”

The practitioner told him, “Many Chinese people have been deceived by the CCP’s lies, so they misunderstand us and push us away. We thank you and people like you for openly supporting us.” He nodded and replied, “Yes, I know. They have all been brainwashed. But I am different from them, I want to support you.”

Two other ladies then came over to persuade him to leave, but the man raised his voice and said firmly, “Don’t come over here! I’m not listening to you!”

The practitioner explained to him why he should quit the CCP and told him that more than 400 million people from China have already done so to show that they do not want to side with the CCP and do not want to be held responsible for the CCP’s persecution of good people. This Shanghai tourist said that he had joined the Youth League and readily agreed to the suggestion to quit. After that, he kept saying, “Good, good, good! Thank you! Thank you!”

Before they all left, the practitioner said to the group, “I wish everyone peace and a happy journey. Be safe, and be healthy!” Several of them smiled and replied, “Thank you!”

“I Want to Join Falun Dafa!”

On May 21, a young woman stood before a display board for a long time before going up to the table to take some informational materials. She told a practitioner, “The Tiananmen self-immolation was a hoax. I knew about that long ago. The CCP has fabricated so many lies to defame you. I really admire you. I want to join Falun Dafa!”

When a practitioner asked her why she wanted to “join” Falun Dafa, she replied, “Because all these years, you have continued to expose the truth. You are courageous, and I want to be like you. I still live in China, but I often travel overseas. When I am overseas, I would like to participate in your events.”

She said that she had been suspicious of the CCP’s propaganda since she was in school: “I never watched the ‘news’ broadcasts, and I learned how to circumvent the internet firewall. The first time I saw a video of the ‘June 4 massacre,’ I was stunned to see the tanks crush the students. I asked my parents about it, but they told me not to.” She said that the CCP says one thing but does another and deceives the common person, so, in her heart, she has objected to the CCP all this time.

The woman then saw the petition and asked what it was for. The practitioner explained, “Since the CCP began persecuting Falun Dafa in 1999, untold numbers of practitioners have been illegally detained, imprisoned, brutally tortured, and have even had their organs harvested while they were still alive. To stop the CCP’s criminal acts, the international community is gathering signatures on a petition calling for an end to the persecution.” She signed the petition without hesitation.

When the young woman heard that more and more Chinese people have quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations, she said, “I want to quit, too. How do I do that?” The practitioner told her that she could register by herself on the Epoch Times’ official Quit-the-CCP website. She asked the practitioner for help and completed the registration process on her mobile phone. She seemed to have been relieved of a heavy burden and said, “Thank you. I feel that I have done something very important!”

She took a copy of a brief introduction to Zhuan Falun, a truth-clarification booklet, and information on how to practice Falun Dafa. She left her contact information, hoping to maintain contact with the practitioner to learn more about Falun Dafa.

British Chinese, “I Want to Practice Falun Dafa”

Not long ago, a young man came to the site and said that he had passed by a few times but had finally mustered up his courage to stop by and speak to someone.

When he learned that Falun Dafa was once popular across China with hundreds of millions of cultivators at one time, such that even the family members of the senior CCP leaders were practicing it, he was very surprised. The practitioner also told him about a former Harvard Medical School student who recovered from a chronic disease after cultivating Falun Dafa. The young man said passionately, “I am full of ailments. I have migraines and leg pain. The doctor said the leg pain is bone hyperplasia. I have been in pain since before my 20s. It is really torture.”

He said that he was an auditor, that it was a very stressful job, and that he often had to work overtime, which only made his health worse. “I really want to give this a try.” The practitioner encouraged him: “Practicing Falun Dafa won’t cost you a cent and can only benefit you.” He nodded and said that he would like to give it a try. He took information about Zhuan Falun and the link for related videos.

The practitioner suggested that he quit the CCP to have peace of mind and be safe. He agreed, and the practitioner helped him register on the website, using the pseudonym “Wang An.” When he heard the name, the young man said in surprise, “My name really has an ‘An’ in it! That is such a coincidence!” The practitioner replied, “This is a name that brings you peace and safety.” The man was very touched and kept thanking the practitioner, saying that he would continue to pay attention to news about Falun Dafa.

Young Couple Choose to Quit the CCP

A young couple had a long chat with a practitioner under the big yellow umbrella with the words “Falun Dafa Is Good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance Is Good” on it. They run a grain and oil business in Xinjiang.

The husband said that he had started using anti-censorship software before the pandemic. After seeing uncensored news in a group chat, he asked his overseas friend to teach him how to circumvent the firewall. “I am a businessman, so I often work with officials and know how corrupt they are. After seeing these news feeds and thinking about the things happening around me, I knew that that uncensored news was all real.”

He said that many of the facts reported by the Falun Dafa media awakened him. Seeing the information on the display board about the CCP’s state-sanctioned forced organ harvesting, he had no doubts about it. When the practitioner told him about the final verdict of the British “People’s Tribunal,” he said, “The CCP is able to do anything evil.”

When the practitioner mentioned quitting of the CCP to have peace of mind and be safe, the couple said that they had been forced to join the Young Pioneers and the Youth League when they were young and did not know the truth. Now that they no longer believed in the Party, they wanted to to quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations.
