President Trump vows to send in the army should state governors fail to quell the violent protests raging across U.S. cities following the police killing of George Floyd. Some Facebook employees stage a virtual walkout, demonstrating against the social media platform’s failure to act on President Trump’s “when the looting starts, the shooting starts” post. In Hong Kong, CEO Carrie Lam hits out at Washington, accusing it of double standards over its reaction to its own protests, while S&P hints at downgrading the territory. And in the UK, Prime Minister Boris Johnson is reportedly set to meet with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen ahead of the final round of Brexit talks.
