The first actual response with the actual crimes that china commits.

I guess it depends on current morals or the uk of the past. After all we did colonise half the world.

Currently we have some pretty draconian views and removal of a lot of rights. Plus the way the government thinks about ex-pats (sorry I meant immigrants, ex-pat is when we go elsewhere). We invaded Iraq under false pretences.

I just don’t see how we are so hypercritical of one country and any view that questions it is usually (not here,today) condemned as a plant, shill, or Winnie the Pooh himself.

to suggest we have “just as dubious morals” as China is categorically wrong.

Only if you have a wilfully short memory and/or are wilfully ignorant of the atrocities that came with far reaching British imperialism (never mind completely ignoring the news)

With the internet at your fingertips there is no excuse:
