The Chinese flu outbreak .......wonder why there's panic ?

I work for a large High Street pharmacy retailer and currently all the fixtures and shop fittings we source from China (which is a lot!) are stuck there. Understand the Chinese factory workers have been told not to go back to work for at least a week longer. We've had to order from local manufacturers and metal workers which has had resulted in unexpected boost for local industry.

Of course, if they hadn't granted limited involvement in 5g, you'd be crowing that we were bowing down to the Donald.

Wrong, unlike you I listen to reasoned argument,

I dont know the reason for Huawei 5g network contract.
The only way to find the truth is to follow the money
Tories are driven by money and power, so my guess will be the Huawei deal benefits somebodies back pocket.

A supposed Russian survivor of WWII once commented upon the scenes and conditions around the Russian countryside, during the 1940's and the famine period throughout one of the winters, saying that rats were eating the dead bodies of children etc.
True survivors knew this was a lie because everything living had been eaten as well as everything else edible - wood, grass, tree bark, moss, dust everything.

That is exactly what my Great Uncle used to say the Russians told hom -- that there was nothing dead left to eat. He was a PoW far East in Europe amongst Russians and they shared him some horrible, horrible accounts he only shared on his deathbed. He left the camp he was at weighing less than 6 stone. They used to catch and eat rats.
