Boris Johnson's government is reportedly furious with China and believes it could have 40 times more coronavirus cases than it claims

Chinese company shipped out millions of Australia’s masks, hand sanitiser, glove supplies

The Netherlands has recalled 600,000 coronavirus face masks it imported from China after discovering they were faulty

China Supplied Faulty Coronavirus Test Kits to Spain, Czech Republic

And they also commandeered factories in China producing medical safety kit bound for expert in February and took all the stock.

Many more of these stories - actually TRUTHS - will come out over the coming weeks and months showing how China lied at every stage to the world (and it's own population) and continue to do so. They sabotaged every other countries ability to deal with this health threat with their network of agents masquerading as foreign investors. I want to see mass confiscations of assets and expulsions of tens of thousands of Chinese nationals. It's time for foreigners to leave China now.

There are a number of former Heads of State, from many countries, that are going to need to find new sponsors as being highly paid shills of the CPP and spouting the virtue of Chinese investment is going to be as popular as spouting the virtues of National Socialism in 1946.

I will be surprised, and relieved, if we are not on the brink of a hot war by the end of the year. A cold war has already begun.

When the truth is known, the death toll is counted and the economic and social costs are estimated people will want retaliation.

China has been walking over the West for a couple of decades now
and we have just let them
and voted for people who let them
We have spouted the "free trade" agenda which has profited China most
and twisted the arms of every other nation to sign up. For decades.
and bought our flash new plastic crap from "our" companies who enable all this.
We all know their spies have crawled over everything we've got, for years
and taking it home to rise as a world power quicker than any nation in history ever has.
Who raised a howl?

And now we cry "victim". poor me poor us, and react with hatred and whispers of war.
But will we ever just get smart, and stand on our own two feet?
It seems even now we need China - at least for somebody to blame.
- so much easier that just wising up and getting on with own chosen thing.

Coronavirus: Chinese wet markets still operation despite COVID-19

Thousands of people have started to flood back into Chinese wet markets, with bats, rabbits and dogs still on offer despite the coronavirus outbreak.

As new cases of the coronavirus continue to decline in China, thousands of people have started to flood back into controversial wet markets across the country.

The city of Wuhan, which has been considered ground zero for the virus outbreak, has started to reopen after being placed on a strict two-month lockdown.

The virus was detected in December and is thought to have originated in a market in the city that sold wild animals for human consumption.

A number of animals, including bats and the highly endangered pangolin, have been identified as possible culprits for the virus.

The Wuhan Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market was shut down in January and in February China declared an immediate and “comprehensive” ban on the trade and consumption of wild animals.

But it appears the recent COVID-19 outbreak has done little deter other animal markets across the country from continuing to trade......

Chinese are masters of deception. They tricked the whole world to take this virus seriously to the point of derangement. They have 5000 years of civilization behind them with many tricks in the bag. The west looks down on them as undeveloped and boorish and that can be a deadly mistake as the west only sees groups of peasant tourists. War is an art of deception.

Yeah, the Chinese are so brilliant they completely shut down all their export markets simultaneously and opened the eyes of the world to their deception. Now all sane nations are frantically rerouting their supply chains for key industries away from China and 30 years of increasing foreign investment into China is halted.

Real Art of War, "Chinese play the long game" type stuff there. :roll:

eyes were already open, that's what the trade war was about
your analysis assumes the west will still be in a position of power after this

perhaps china have stolen all the tech they need, and built industry around it
all the west have left is finance, which is collapsing
and will leave china as the only major supplier, and power

i don't really believe that either
but it's certainly 'interesting times'

Mods - can we put all the China stuff into a separate thread? It’s a very good discussion, but not really fitting into this topic.

The number of deaths from hunger in the world will be doubling every two weeks if they don’t open the economy back by the end of April. As well as deaths by violent crime.
Well that's a fun little fantasy chart that is completely not in keeping with respectable medical findings.

Here's something meaningful for anyone who doesn't realize Hunter is a corona conspiracy theorist who gets his information from... "interesting" websites.
This is from the world health organization. Any other respectable community will show the same findings.

Edit: I posted the wrong year chart, but click the link, do a search, etc, and you'll find that it's pretty consistent every year.

Do you think the parents of baby boomers whined so much when the boomers started changing society? And yet the whiney ones like to call young people "snowflakes." Hmm...
