She may not be long for this world

I hope this isn’t because the current or incoming blonde smoothbrain squatting at 10 Downing Street forgot or couldn’t be bothered to do a covid test before going to get their precious photo op with her.

One visit from truss and even the queen wants to go

How so? When the US firebombed what it called Japanese "ant heaps" and topped it off with two nuclear bombs, what was the result? A compliant and humble supplicant. How is that a negative consequence? What China should do to achieve the same outcome is crystal clear.

The Japanese are contrite because they started the fighting with the US. They understand why the Americans were so angry.

Unless the Japanese initiate a war with China, I oppose a massacre of the people on Honshu. I don't want the Middle Kingdom to be like a Mafia chieftain. There's no need for China to behave that way. There'd be no need for ANY country to behave that way if the United Nations should begin to work as it was supposed to do.

Wonder if Scotland will seek independence after the Queen's death.

There will likely be a lot of changes around the world following her passing. Canada, Australia, NZ, Jamaica, many other countries where the Queen is head of state may become republics. Hell, even the UK itself might (although it would then need a new name).

"To buy US military equipment"
Why not to buy European military equipment or anywhere else where they could get more for less.

I think Truss and every other UK political elites will bash their skulls open over the concrete road before that happens

That would lead to the start of a Northern Ireland type insurgency. A big portion of the British army is Scottish, it would be like when the Indians started to massacre Sikhs.

I think high gas prices make Scottish independence a fait accompli.

EXCLUSIVE German economy ministry reviews measures to curb China business​

BERLIN, Sept 8 (Reuters) - Germany's economy ministry is considering a raft of measures to make business with China less attractive as it seeks to reduce its dependency on Asia's economic superpower, two people familiar with the matter told Reuters.

The measures could include reducing or even scrapping investment and export guarantees for China and no longer promoting trade fairs and manager training there, those people said. Loans from state lender KfW could be re-directed to projects in other Asian countries, such as Indonesia, in line with attempts to diversify trade and increase business with democracies.

The ministry is also considering screening not just Chinese investments in Germany but also German investments in China, one of the sources told Reuters.

In addition, the government is considering submitting a complaint to the World Trade Organization about what it views as unfair Chinese trade practices, together with the Group of Seven wealthy democracies, a separate source said.

“We should show Beijing that we are willing to fight for the principles of fairness,” the source said.

Ok.

If that’s the case it is mercy that she doesn’t get to see it happen under her reign.
