Downing Street says China faces a 'reckoning' over the coronavirus

Ministers say China risks becoming a 'pariah state' over its handling of outbreak

They are furious over the Communist state's campaign of misinformation

PM Boris Johnson is now facing calls to reverse decision on Huawei 5G deal

Boris Johnson’s allies turned on China over the coronavirus crisis yesterday, as Britain’s death toll from the epidemic reached four figures.

Ministers and senior Downing Street officials said the Communist state now faces a ‘reckoning’ over its handling of the outbreak and risks becoming a ‘pariah state’.

They are furious over China’s campaign of misinformation, attempts to exploit the pandemic for economic gain and atrocious animal rights record.

The Prime Minister, who now faces Cabinet calls to reverse his decision to let controversial Chinese firm Huawei build large parts of Britain’s new 5G telecoms network, today warns that the epidemic is likely to worsen in the coming weeks – but that he expects the British ‘spirit’ to overcome the crisis

I think that's already happened cc.

China has already become a pariah state with this incident.

Thats why I tend to think this was not a manufactured virus. China had too much to lose. Especially prestige and face.

ie - its somewhat doubtful that another Olympiad or other major sporting event will ever be held again in China. Or international conferences, etc.

They'll be laughed at, snubbed & shunned by the rest of the world.
They'll become the butt of jokes.
No one in the medical community will take them seriously again.

Fewer Nobel prizes awarded to them, etc.

Stricter visa/entry requirements for Chinese nationals. ultra strict health screening for them. New health requirements in Chinese imports (as in - are they infected carrying some virus?)

.... it'll all add up.

Downing Street is looking for a sacrificial lamb because bo-jo kept saying, until yesterday I guess, how this is nothing but another flu and advocated herd immunity. Chinese raised the alarm back in December, but everybody was laughing at them including bo-jo. Could he not have seen what happened in Italy himself? Is his blindness Chinese fault too?

Ignorant fool, both him and his health secretary. Did you know that UK health secretary is an economist and not a doctor? Rich cunts all of them, bo-jo cabinet.

some of the manufacturing started moving away during the trade war with trump. it turns out supply lines can bee rebuilt elsewhere.

That would be a good thing. A small bud of state socialism here in the west because I bet you that the govt will soon require certain emergency materials to be manufacturable/ manufactured locally. Businesses would never do it on their own, it will always be cheaper to buy from overseas.

The jury will be out forever on who started it. In globalized economy, no country is separate from another.

I'm hoping that five star made a serious mistake by threatening the US pharmaceutical supply chain. price is important, but a foreign state standing on your air hose is memorable and potentially actionable. senator Tom cotton was on about China this morning, and eventually Trump will be out of power leaving 5 star more open to retaliation.

there was that one brief shiny moment before trump went all haywire and started mucking about globally. there was talk of rebuilding silk roads and china using it's wealth to help globalize prosperity.

Typically imperialism has only worked out well for the ruling class. china is in the earliest stage of empire vis a vis its African and American associations. It will be interesting to see if it succumbs to mission creep.

If Tom Cotton was aware of and understood the potential epidemic dangers in January, why wasn’t DT? China is evil, and should never be trusted

Not much will come of this for a myriad of reasons. China will still dominate world trade after this has all settled as they are still the cheapest most reliable producer of consumer goods. Once this crisis has passed, Western corporations will still like the Chinese bottom line and consumers will still want cheap, $199 48' TV's, so not much will change. Corporations buy governments and tapped out voters will vote for their cheapest option. China wins again.

It is akin to Lenin's quote: “The Capitalists will sell us the rope with which we will hang them.” The Chinese know our weaknesses and they play upon them accordingly.

Chinese 5G won't happen in the Five Eyes nations, but it never was an going to be an option prior to the outbreak anyway. The will likely be more focus on repatriating and bolstering strategic resources such as pharma, food and information technology but other than that the market will enable China to continue to do business as usual.

Suing China is a comical no goer as dozens of nations have tried to put the US, Russian and China in front of the World Court with no success what so every. Countries with power simply ignore the court and continue to do as they do. I don't think Dick Cheney is losing a lot of sleep about being branded a war criminal and calls for him to be pulled in front of the World Court.

Not gonna happen.

Exactly.

Btw who warned Russia? This is how you manage a big city during a pandemic: ‘You should NOT leave your home’: Moscow mayor issues strict Covid-19 pandemic order, stopping short of complete lockdown

....but it won't be business as usual Kuklinski. Things will change.

Now airports, ports will have to spend a ton of money on virus detection. What if that shipment of Toys you buy from the stores with MADE IN CHINA has viruses on them cuz some sick overworked factory employee spread his germs on them. And now your child could get infected with cvd or something else. The cost of doing business with China will increase. on both sides of the ocean. Travel will become more expensive. More permits & visas needed.

No your scenario is too simplistic Kuklinski. Things will have to change in order to make it safer & hralthier.

While the world was willing to China a pass for SARS, it won't for coronavirus. It was for many, the last straw.


Will you think twice about buying goods from China? If you dont im sure others will.

I love Chinese goods. Covid has zero to do with buying Chinese goods to me. If anything I would trust more that they have been properly disinfected than goods from the other parts.

What about stuffed toys made in China vacuum sealed possibly containing viruses, evs/Irina?

Do you want your daughter to play with those things?

I'd think about those things after this coronovirus problem if I were a parent.

Without proper health & sanitation measures in China, nobody will be safe anymore. First came SARS, and now coronovirus. If they don't clean up their act or are forced to, whats the next epidemic gonna be like?

Well Irina ever since the SARS crisis, I've never bought food candies or drinks Made in China.

And I think I'll continue to boycott/avoid them.

Other than Chicken with Cashew Nuts, Ive never been a fan of Chinese food anyway.
