Well that does it... she does not speak for this kiwi... and I am at polar ends of the spectrum... The CCP have multiple times over stepped their bounds... The 7 dash line, the Uyghers, Taiwan, Covid-19 and WHO not co-operating, lying about everything, bullying the other countries, the fishing fleet strip fishing in territorial waters of other countries. The debacle in Hong Kong their Wolf tactics with their loans to poorer countries, and the list goes on and on...
I do not trust them, and we should not be trading with them.
This government has been woozled by the money and had the wool pulled over their eyes purely inexperience...
