Well, all of Andrew's Brexit predictions up until now have proved to be wrong, have they not? Mine have only proved wrong in terms of when we could get the deal through, but it was Parliament, not the EU, that was blocking this.
As far as China is concerned, it is a big trading nation these days. Much as I am concerned about human rights in that country, the degree of democracy permitted there is a separate issue from trade. China would see it as none of our business, and they have a point.
There are not many countries in the world with our high standards. Are you suggesting we don't trade with them either?
