People Power (Hong Kong)

People Power (PP) was a populist and radical democratic political party in Hong Kong. Formerly chaired by Raymond Chan, it belonged to the radical wing of the pro-democracy camp.

People Power was founded in 2011 as a political coalition consisting of the defected League of Social Democrats (LSD) legislators Wong Yuk-man and Albert Chan and activists from the Power Voters, Democratic Alliance and The Frontier who aimed to "punish" the Democratic Party for its compromise with the Beijing authorities over the constitutional reform proposal in 2010. It filled 62 candidates in the 2011 District Council election, in which many of them stood against the Democrats, but only got one candidate elected. The party however ran a successful 2012 Legislative Council election by winning 10 per cent of the vote and gaining three seats in the Legislative Council.

After Wong Yuk-man's faction left the party in 2013, People Power developed a warmer relationship with the mainstream pan-democrats and cooperated with the LSD over parliamentary tactics such as filibustering. In the 2016 Legislative Council election, the party formed an electoral coalition with the LSD in which they received about seven percent of the votes, seeing Raymond Chan being re-elected. Chan resigned from the Legislative Council in September 2020 in protest to the government's decision to postpone the 2020 Legislative Council election, which left the party with no representation in the legislature. After Chan quit the party following his arrest, dozens left as well and the rump party is de-registered by the authorities in November 2025.
