Liu Xiaobo is a dangerous man. The Nobel Peace Prize website tells us this about how serious a threat he poses to the freedom, peace loving Chinese Communist Party.

Liu was born on the 28th December 1955. He studied literature and philosophy. Then he worked as a literary critic and university lecturer in Beijing. He took a doctorate in 1988. After that he was a guest lecturer at universities throughout Europe and the USA.

It first became apparent that Liu was dangerous when he took part in the student protests in Tiananmen Square in 1989. For that he was sentenced to two years in prison – clearly the Chinese Communist Party took a lenient view of his serious errors, expecting to be repaid with gratitude, not betrayal. But this mad man later served three years in a labour camp for having once more spoken out criticising China's one-party system. Why would anyone do such a thing!

For over twenty years, Liu has fought for a more open and democratic China. He demands that the Chinese authorities comply with Article 35 of the Chinese Constitution, which lays down that the country's citizens enjoy "freedom of speech, of the press, of assembly, of association, of procession and of demonstration". Is he serious? Just because the Constitution says this, does Liu seriously expect it? I warned you that he was mad.

In 2008, Liu was a co-author of what is called Charta 08. It’s a manifesto which advocates the gradual shifting of China's political and legal system towards a democratic system. He was arrested in December 2008, and sentenced a year later to eleven years' imprisonment for undermining the state authorities. Once more the tolerant and paternal regime gave him a slap on the wrist, not wanting to go too hard on him – which is clearly what he deserved. Liu has constantly denied the charges. He says "Opposition is not the same as undermining". He clearly misses the point.

On 8 October 2010 the Nobel Prize committee, in the days when it acted with integrity and upheld its principles, rather than bowing down to the Chinese Communist Party, announced that it was awarding the Nobel Peace Prize to him.

Peking University acted appropriately, by using marvellous new technology, to examine the facial expressions of the students on hearing this news. Any face that “showed unusual happiness” could be guilty of serious face crime and at risk of having their scholarship cancelled – possibly worse.

Modern technology, social media companies and silicon valley high tech companies know how to treat the Chinese Communist Party with respect. Let me tell you more.
