🧵 Deepening 🇬🇧 🇨🇳 engagement is not a new policy. Anyone paying attention will recall the list of ministers in the Sunak Gov that met with 🇨🇳 counterparts. But for those who haven’t here is a list:

Subsidies if implemented poorly will only increase supply and kill off demand. Thailand should serve as a cautionary tale where Chinese EV imports have killed off local demand & hastened the decline of its domestic automotive sector. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article....

Appreciate the opportunity to speak to #BBCWorld #BBCBusiness on the impact of #NationalSecurity sentences of 45 #HK activists on foreign businesses & the economy. #HK is facing a perfect storm with an exodus of 500k #HKers , exposed to 🇨🇳 property downturn, & will be hit by 🇺🇸 🇨🇳 trade war.

There is no justification for the appalling sentences in #HK today. Years in jail for standing in primary elections 🗳️ which 600k #HongKongers voted in. Govs should offer swift & strong condemnation of the dismantling of #democracy in #HK & largest sentence under #NSL.
