    Let's remember that globalization was pushed by the business community to move factories to low wage countries. Low wages a direct result of no worker's rights. For the business community, China's abysmal human rights record is a plus.

    This talk illustrates the fundamental dichotomy. For Britain politics, foreign relations, culture, and economics are separate things. For the Chinese (or the Russians) they're not.

    Let's not forget that Andrew apparently, on more than one occasion tried to persuade his mother to pass Charles over in favour of Andrew for the throne on the pretext that Charles wasn't up to it. Fortunately, even though Andrew was reportedly her favourite child she did not give him his way.

    We don't need PR China. Time for some principles, rather than appeasing and placating. Time to move away from short-term consumerism and accommodating that regime.

    A bit strange talking about needing China and not remotely mentioning the Uyghurs. Also , as it’s MI5 who are recommending China go into the advanced tier as the national security threat not to highlight that seems bizarre

    Andy wouldn't fit into a slimmed down royal family.

    The Royal Family need Prince Andrew and all his B.S, as the perfect distraction. …Just wheel out Duke of York every now and then to satisfy the public’s Royal Family itch that needs scratching.

    Saying that the UK needs China, is like saying that Marlin (aka Reeves) and Dory (aka Starmer) need Bruce, The Great White.

      Didn’t realize Marlin and Dory have 25B trade deficit with Great white annually

    Mandelson 's appointment will no doubt create loss of memory regarding Epstein.
