羅冠聰發言內容稿一度寫道:「要離開自己成長地方及不知道幾時回來是非常艱難。但這一步,為了香港好,我知道很多人已經有所準備。我們必須繼續發聲及在國際平台提倡我們的理念。」(To leave the place where you grew up and not knowing when you ever will return is difficult. But this is a step I know many of us are prepared to take for the good of Hong Kong. We must continue to speak up and advocate for our cause on the international stage. Be Water, as we like to say.)不過,羅冠聰最終發言時,沒有發表上述內容。
