See our live blog of the police-protester confrontation in Mong Kok.

– The Federation of Students has called upon supporters to bring supplies and prepare equipment in anticipation of a major announcement to be made on Nov. 30 in Admiralty, raising the possibility of a new direction for the pro-democracy movement. 

– According to a recent poll by the Ming Pao newspaper, only 25% of the protesters are actually students. 

– Pan-democratic legislator Claudia Mo’s request to hold a LegCo council session regarding police brutality has been denied as being of “little urgency” by Ip Kwok Him, who heads the lawmaking body’s Security Council. Ip is a member of a pro-Beijing party. 

– Supporters of democracy continue their “Shopping Revolution” in Mong Kok, which began after the police cleared protesters from the streets.
