    Starmer isn’t able to make a decision and wants to sit on the fence again? This isn’t even news anymore, it’s a baseline expectation.

    Translation: Popular adages equating China with low quality haven’t been true in years (if not decades), everybody knows it, the real “problem” with China is their military/space programmes. As for the US, well, 51st state and all that. Sorry… Brexit was a mistake, the UK should have stayed with the EU. Now they have to kowtow to the US and they shouldn’t have to.

    Those aren’t the only options.

      Europe? I don’t know her.

    It’s not a zero sum game.

    I don’t blame him. Choice of one stable and expanding authoritarian regime and one unstable and expanding authoritarian regime. Do the Chinese police hold nurses down in the street and shoot them?
