Reporting on government policy is always regurgitation of the party line. Do you want to be presented with fake news or what? The difference to the West is that in the West they also report on the statement given by the opposition. Since there is no official opposition in China, there's a nothing to report there. Hence the vacuum in reporting. One can hardly blame the newspaper on that, nor should one be surprised by the fact. The only choice the paper has is to present critical analysis/ opinions on the topic as presented by Tom Holland here.

Too bad it's yet again a very bad analysis.
Last time I looked there was an opposition in Hong Kong. The SCMP now only seems to paint them as miscreants rather than exploring policy.
But reading different sides allows an informed opinion. I am sure some thought it was a good article
Because anyone who thinks the purpose of this train is about getting goods from London to China and thinks everything in between amounts to nothing is seriously deluded.Original Post Deleted
When the CE's policy address is devoted to Belt & Road it has clearly become a Hong Kong internal policy not foreign policy
45,000 articles for CY Leung / Belt & road

And around 9000 articles posted by the HK gov. The Hong Kong public are spending a lot of money and allowing a lot of governmental effort on this initiative and you are suggesting opposition voices should not be heard. Nice...
To put it into perspective. the government have issued 376 articles on parking offences.
