Chinese authorities have seized almost 8,000 rolls of toilet paper and another 20,000 packages of tissues embossed with unflattering images of Hong Kong's pro-Beijing chief executive. The items  - featuring Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying - were to be sold at a market in Hong Kong during Lunar New Year celebrations later this month. They were bought by the Hong Kong Democratic Party, which is said to have made HK$100,000 (£8,500) selling 4,000 rolls of the same toilet paper last year. The party's Vice Chairman Lo Kin-hei said it planned to earn more cash this year by selling the products during the island's Lunar New Year fair.
