China is just doing what America has done to all its so called allies for years trade wise. Big eats (replace with the F word) small. Big bullies doing what they need to do based on their own aims. Anyone here want to saddle up to America still? The place is out of control politically and economically. Never been so divided over there. They are a bloody mess.
I am afraid that you ( and most here and there) missing the point.
China is simply reacting to our request to implement freedom in their country, straighten and shorten their borders, shut down their high tech manufacturing plants with 5G in forefront and pretty much there are not following our demands at all. So far there are we sending warships to their sea not vice verse.
I am afraid we do care more about Muslim in Himalaych being educated by Chinese then our own native people being kept in the poorest of all and prevented from business activity and education. You possibly don't want for China to have a look at our internal matters and rise a voice to start protecting our own people and rights here. That could be much more painful then some economics barriers on sea food and similar excess. Bubble of our superiority in democracy and human rights could bust like a famous SAS.
Funnily enough, this diatribe sounds exactly like that which is dribbling out of the masters of beijing, Macro, once again you sound like a chinese puppet.

I don't have a f****k if your main goal in life is now to fight and die for the rights of Muslim Uguus or HK democracy.What that F**K has to do with any Aussie now willing to sacrifice 6% of our GDP to protect Muslims in Himalayan? Do you want them to bring here to blow half of the country like did in France already? What I am saying and you don't understand that is not our business at all to intervene in Chinese internal affairs,
even Saudi Arabia enslaved half of the population ( read women) shouldn't get us at the forefront of the world improvement force.You mate to on the water and there is where your commonsense ends.
All this has already played out previously in history, another country, another warped regime, and sadly not that long ago.
Does the world really need a replay??
Scomo is coming across as a total amateur in international diplomacy. Its turning into a train wreck just because of his total misunderstanding of business relationships.
Trump has played Scomo like a fiddle.
I would hazard to guess that the USA is now selling their barley to China?
Sure, China are looking like the awkward nerdy guy trying to make a joke and failing, but that aside have all the buying power.

.... PS. I know. I still need somebody to translate for KK all above into a format easy to read and understand....
Look, I don't have any formal translation qualifications and neither Macro-language nor Australian are my expertise but being such a nice person I'll have a go at helping anyway ....
kk - what macro is saying is :
...if any of you think that we will accept an international investigation into the Coronavirus, it's origins and the actions of the authorities in managing it then, then you are very, very mistaken. We, the CCP and our agents, will not allow action (or even the suggestion of an action) that results in any investigation or transparency of the Party. We will also not permit anything to occur that may result in the CCP looking less than perfect.
The Party will not be held to account for anything, anytime because the Party is the ultimate authority and is without fault by definition.
We will therefore use any and every method, without bounds or limits, in defending the right of the Party to remain secretive and closed to those who are not deemed to be in authority. If those actions require deflecting the conversation from a UN investigation with powers to question and investigate individuals, organizations and events into a trade war concentrated on lobsters and wine, then so be it.
What the Party says is the truth and nothing will be allowed to change that.
Anyone who is so uneducated to beLIEve anything else will be re-educated, in any manner the Party determines is required..
The discussion / thread / website / internet / country / right to discuss this is closed.
I think that just about sums it up.... hang on there is somebody at the doo............
is it possible McGowan could lift the iron ore fines royalty rate and use that to help out the incomes of the poor bastards caught in the cross fire - the crayfisherman, grape growers, barley farmers etc that are copping a flogging so we can stand on our principle? Seems like what mates would do...
what is one countries pain is another blessing,
Aus lost out on great export market for crayfish, New Zealand snuck in the back door and now struggle to keep up demand. Family rellie has been cray fishing for years and cant believe his good fortune.
