The PM is widely criticised for travelling too much and doing too little to tackle the problems at home that anger and worry voters. He and friends claim he is good diplomat or UK representative, yet his trips usually result in the UK giving money, powers islands away in pursuit of friendship that he does not naturally command. The Chagos deal means losing crucial islands and £35 bn over 99 years. The EU took 12 years of our very valuable fish just to get into talks. France takes more than £500 m but fails to stop the boats for this border money.
The PM follows the Chancellor who announced a measly £600 m of deals for a 3,000,000 million economy, or O.02% of our GDP! He thinks he will generate some growth from more business. The UK runs a big deficit with China and is busy shutting down our energy and fuel based businesses in order to import more Chinese solar panels and wind turbines.
A weak PM has given in and approved a mega Embassy to China despite obvious security risks. The Chagos islands are being given away to a friend of China. How long before China is spying on the most important air and naval base the US and UK has outside home territory? How long before they hav3 fishing rights to wreck an important protected marine area?
This trip is bad news for the PM and for UK taxpayers. The PM will not stand up for UK interests, will be out manoeuvred. by China and will spend more time away from our pressing problems at home. Why?
