    A good guidance for Sir Keir and David Lamy (Labour Shadow Foreign Secretary) would be the formulation taken by the current Australian labour government… “We will cooperate where we can, disagree where we must. We will engage in our national interest.” What’s left unsaid is that we are nobody’s sidekick or lapdog.
    The new UK government must also learn to stop the grandstanding megaphone diplomacy which the Tories had engaged in under Boris, Truss and Sunak.

      Blue-blooded Sunak never knew what it is like being a low-paid worker in the U.K. faced with ever increasing cost of living and that was why he proposed bringing conscription back. Utterly blind to the sufferings of the British common people and that was why he and his Torie s have been tossed out - which is really a warning to the incoming Starmer Labor Party as well - "you work for the people as THEIR public servant or else ..." - which is something that our politi cal leaders just don't seem to get it.

    China is not perfect and for sure, neither is the UK. The wests pretty constant rhetoric on China has become tiresome. I’m no expert but I do sometimes wonder if the constant accusations levelled against China are more to do with our own concerns that China often makes us look disorganised and weak. I have western friends who have moved to China and they are real people who love the security and safety they feel in the country. So I for one hope that the UK does rebuild what was once quite a good relationship.

      China is a beautiful place. I'm from the UK and I've lived in China for years. Never seen a single crime here, cost of living is low, streets at night bright filled with people dancing, its safe, clean, happy, people don't talk about wars and media lies all day, its a joy to live in and the Chinese Government do 1000 times more for China than ANY Government in the West does for their people. You can tell what a Government is all about when you see what they actually do for people and China is light years ahead of ours mate, there is no doubt at all to me who is lying and who is corrupt and its not CHina.

      @@pawoon Its pretty close to perfect in terms of Governance the imperfections at the moment are simply due to the fact it was once feudal 50 years ago and it takes time for those values to change, you cant just force the older generations to change overnight. But in terms of how the Government is working, its pretty perfect really, always going in the right direction always pushing never forcing. Beautiful country to live in.

    The UK is past, once important but less relevant year after year. Regarding UK Visa free to China FORGET IT. The UK visa process for Chinese is the worse process ever. I know several Chinese who went through the Tourist visa process and in 2023 and 2024 and they will NEVER EVER visit UK again. This includes one person who has had Schengen Visa's in past, as a valid 10 year US visa and permanent residence status for Canada.
    My advise to Chinese tourists is avoid the UK, the EU will welcome you.

    UK government always go after business interests and working with China is in the right direction … however, US demand is also important - after all, western democracy needed to be seen superior through military and economy might but how? Actually, US hard on China even embargo has benefit Europe businesses in the past - Chinese government open doors to the world in the 70s and started businesses with UK, Germany, France, Italy and Scandinavia through trading houses in Hong Kong while Japan businesses did it through Japanese trading companies and government sponsorship as a post WWII friendship gesture. US businesses enter China much later in the 80s and then everybody after 2000 or WTO.
