  • Doesn't this leave the original lawyer open to some sort of complaint. If he told his client to perjure himself then surely this can have consequences.

  • And China is still stealing land and minerals from other countries. What exactly is your point? That the only people who should respect fairness and equality are everyone else except China?

    Go tell that to the Myanmar where you are currently stealing copper from mining, or the Uyghurs where genocide is very evident, or the many other areas China is nothing more than a shitty country to deal with. No owes China anything, and China certainly does not do anything for anyone else without self interest. You victimise your own people even when they are outside of your own borders. You intimidate the families of those who disagree with you. You steal kids from their home to reindoctrinate them. The list just keeps growing. China is not deserving of any respect, at least not anymore than the respect it gives to others.

  • Stating that China's insistent interference does not make a conspiracy theory. It states a fact. If China does not negative comments, then it should not endorse negative actions.

  • You still have rights. Everyone should have a contract by law. Joining a union will get you advice on those rights. Your negative attitude is a primary cause that the Tories have gotten away with so much.

    I agree the Tories have eroded rights past the point of reason, and even those right we have are more difficult to defend. P and O being a case in point. The Tories even kept them (P and O) in line for a £300m contract after this. That does not mean we should not defend those rights. Being complacent is a terrible route to just meander into.

    Full fact shows the average wages dropped by £20 per week in 2018 from 2008. We have had 3 more years since then and now it is very obvious that it is a lot worse. The young and the poorest feeling it the most. A union sub is £10 per month on average. If everyone was in a union then the whole country's contracted labour force would be £30 per month better off. Not being in a union is a false economy.

    If nothing else please make sure you vote when we get the chance.

  • 1800 was not. China are supposed to be good at maths, wtf happened to you? They obviously do not spend a lot on bots these days.

  • I am not going to listen to arguments based on events from 200 years ago. My family were being starved in Ireland back then.

    China was a closed nation for a very long time. Any developments in China are down to China themselves. Do you even know the term of the Cold War?

    There were no friendly arrangements between the west and China until very recent. The hand of friendship has been extended due to the collapse of Russia and the west recognising the futility of being aggressive for the sake of being aggressive. China also opened it borders, something unthinkable before the USSR collapsed. Since the cooling of relations between the west and China, China has abused that hand of friendship in many areas. Is it any wonder that hostilities are building up again?

  • China is under no obligation to dissuade the Euro-centric world from a conspiracy theory narrative

    We have just had a world pandemic. Common sense states that we should be looking into that.

    after a full century of humiliating China.

    Humiliating China in what way?

  • There are not supposed to be military establishments in the area. There were European scientist in the Wuhan facility before covid was active. This adds to the conspiracy theories. It may very well be that the origins came from the caves, but China does not help anyone in dissuading the narrative.

  • No one disputes that this could be a transcendence issue, but China's continuous blocking any efforts that are not controlled by them makes any investigation suspect. The Chinese should have already hosted an investigation. This will have been presented to the initial who investigation. Any further investigations will have zero credibility.

  • Or you could join a union and learn about your rights.

  • The next few winters are going to be extremely cold. Get wrapped up and enjoy that discussion.

  • What?

    It was a 100 years ago. No one had any dealings with Russia for near fifty years between then and now. And outside of NATO Ukraine wishes to be in the EU, which is a competitor to the USA.

  • A bit of a stark difference between the belligerents isn't it. One has a corrupt army that cannot fight due to the restrictions that corruption that has caused. The other stamped on corruption when it was revealed. The only win Russia will see from this travesty is if they decide en masse to remove the corrupt blight that infects their country.

  • Oil companies are gouging the planet and Microsoft has no real competition. That doesn't hold much water imo.
