Default In bed with China, a New order?

It was hinted at in the BBC 10pm news that George Osbornes negotiations for nuclear power stations being built and managed by China signals a new order....
Well does it?...

Russia and China are going forward and USA are going backwards so any kind of deal with China or Russia at this point is only a good thing.

The USA can't fight change. It can fight proxy wars and install new governments but it can't fight change. All great empires come to an end and the USA is no different. It can only be a good thing to have a world where there isn't just one country that is more powerful than all the rest. Russia and China aren't the terrifying nations that the USA likes to paint them as being.

China wouldn't entertain our PM as he's previously met with the Dali Lama, that's not a good omen is it?...

Generally China has good relations with the UK, the Dali Lama thing ruffled a few feathers, but I dont think they'd turn against the UK for that. China is definately gearing up to be the new superpower. Is that a good thing? Who knows.

China is not proper communism
and we are dealing with the Commercial Sector.


When China went into the Congo
they got locals to build roads (for the Metals being dug up)
and the locals said they worked them to hard
one bloke - his arm had bone sticking out.
China - they work you to the bone



Also Kizzy since New Labour never started building Nuke stations
we are well behind.
So China getting this work done is a good thing.

That's a bit of a jump to make, but I think the government needs to be wary of what they're walking into.

I personally have no problem with this move with the Chinese. They are intelligent and are an economy of the future in my view and also a likely extremely succesful one.

I would rather have connections with them at this time certainly. For me it is something George Osborne is at last doing right.

As long as they don't bring with them their penchant for dog meat and animal husbandry Joey

Ummmm the Chinese economic policy is to completely disregard (and exploit) those at the bottom of the pile for the benefit of the rest. Their poorest are literally starving to further their economy.

So, yeah I guess they're right up George Osbourne's street.

China's role in the world and status as an economic superpower isn't gonna go away, we can either embrace the shift in power that's been happening or just stay wary of it and miss out on the advantages that increased cooperation with the Chinese could bring

In other words we don't have a choice.
Human rights Act will be the next to go.
