China or the US? For the UK, there is no choice

Anyone who is surprised that all these recalls could fail despite gathering all those signatures needs to understand: Almost every district can summon 30% support for blue/green camps. 10% is the amount of signatures needed.

Early days but if these results hold, a lot of self-professed Taiwan experts need to take a long, hard look in the mirror about how they completely misjudged support for the recalls.

Today is a pivotal day for bi-national couples and families: for the first time people on the spouse/partner visa route were listened to by a Committee that wanted to learn what life is really like when you want to live in the UK and were moved by what we read in the report #FamiliesBelongTogether🧵

Seeing as I am soon to leave the company, I will list out a few replies to points in the article. The English version had the xenophobic edges sanded off by Kwangyin. From the start, the only instruction on editorial policy received by the team is that T+ should operate as an int'l news channel.

TaiwanPlus's budget has been cut by 20% and funds "frozen" (in essence means you must satisfy lawmakers' demands before money is released) 30%. The stated reason being the "inappropriate" description of Trump as a "convicted felon."

KMT proposal to cut the entirety of PTS (and TaiwanPlus) budget. TPP has proposed cutting 20% plus freezing 30%. Unclear if either proposal will be adopted (previous negotiation had agreed a 2% cut). www.threads.net/@jeankuo329/...

This week, three news stories in Taiwan have illustrated to me the government's unwillingness to meaningfully engage with some of the country's biggest problems: its poor labour standards, its shrinking population, and its lack of international visibility. All three are also intimately connected. 1/
