Comment on PM Starmer is driving the U.K.’s China policy into a quagmire: London doesn’t know how to respond to pressure from Beijing. The aborted China spy trial feels like a turning point.

Starmer has never seen an issue he won’t cave on.

He’s running to the right of the Reform Party because he’s scared. He’s running to meet Trump on foreign policy because he’s scared. He’s running to turn over his country’s water rights to AI companies because he’s scared. He’s running to embrace the St. George’s Cross, ffs.

Why would China be any different?
