I don't know why you think China will walk all over us
In 30 years they'll begin to run out of young people. The One Child Policy crippled their birth rates and projections show them never truly recovering.

And it's only on the rise 🙂

Just imagine what post-Brexit will be like

> show them never truly recovering.
There's plenty of methods to encourage birth rates.

Liberal countries don't like to do them, but China happily will

Oh
You're a Britbong

We're in UK pol <:pot_of_kek:544849795433496586>

What about Thomas cook and pizza express?
They are Chinese owned and they failed.
Chinese make shit investors

> On 1 November 2019, Fosun International announced it would purchase the Thomas Cook brand, along with the Casa Cook and Cook's Club hotel brands, for £11 million

😊

Still going

hopefully china will buy all of our failing companies... and the british owners will spend that money on new startups, meanwhile the chinese invested companies continue to fail 😛

Imagine thinking that the UK is more powerful than China

What is this delusion

You know what is more powerful than China? The fucking EU

DELETE THAT

You'll break their narrative

Nah mate
It's the US

And the EU

Imagine thinking power is more important than national sovereignty

teh EU...

EU has bigger economy, a high pop, good tech

China won’t fuck with that

surely nato is a more powerful treaty?

EU is not NATO

Using that argument is like saying we should be annexed by the US

Since when is NATO a single market

nobody said it is..?

But we aren’t annexed by the EU

We'd be more powerful after all

We are voluntary powerful member

That drives a lot of the decisions

as usual PEP is on some strawman rant 😛

Why are you even talking to these people that don't understand the concept of soft and hard power? ..

What strawman?

you said someone mention nato is the eu?

nobody said that

I'll take sovereignty over power

The same stupid argument the SNP make
