Hong Kong’s mass democracy protests already have their own nickname – the Umbrella Revolution.
Everyone knows that no self-respecting Hongkonger goes anywhere without a brolly, but they sure do seem to come in extra handy when you’re being pelted with tear gas.
The hashtag #UmbrellaRevolution is already trending in Twitter, with Miss Vivienne Chow even knocking up a few nifty logos for the theme.
Even the Arab Spring can’t claim that!
