I know it’s shocking isn’t, I’m outraged.

The West is just as bad tbf.

Now that black lives matter is in the forefront of everyone's mind, those casual racists, the "not me I have black friends" kind.
unconsciously turn to the next easy target, such is life.

Apparently anyone agreeing with you is a casual racist. Maybe the Uighurs don't matter as some don't think they are important enough?

Yet happy for all those in China and the camps (because unfortunately as you point out they are Chinese) to be made fun of about their food/names etc etc....
It is exactly how it starts, it makes it ok, if kids here that as in the 60s and 70s then it becomes acceptable and then grows from there to full on blind hate, that's what all the men in the 70s who went on NF marches through towns heard there parents "jokingly" make fun of surnames etc back in the 60s and 50s during the windrush.
You understand that, we don't want that, we want the same thing the dictatorship of China brought down, not drag the people of china down. s

Their loss. I guess they had to watch their local Real Fruitbat v AC Armadillo instead. China’s only goal is to control the rest of the world. About time countries like ours took a stand against such an evil regime. There’s trouble ahead, mark my words.

How do you separate the two? How does someone defeat the Chinese government without defeating its people first? And don’t be so assuming that Chinese don’t support their government. Despite attempts to rewrite history, and replace word German with nazi, facts remains the German people overwhelmingly supported Hitler and in WW2 the Allies fought against Germany, just as Germany didn’t fight against the Tory-Labour-Liberal party, they fought Britain.

i follow crypto currency, and they're banned in China about every month. i dont think anyone will be missing any football there, and our clubs will still get their revenue.

China’s loss. The townsfolk will be rebelling!
We started it
We were pretty happy with Huwawei rolling out 5G in the UK until we decided to become the little ''Lap Dog'' of Donald Trump and join his personal Fight against China
China could drive the UK Economy into the ground if they choose to - Most Manufacturing for UK companies is provided in China, India and Bangladesh
We are lucky they have only started on the football. That's small fry in comparison to the issues they could cause the UK Economy if they really put their mind to it.
We should have stayed out of the United States petty little fights that Donald Trump is picking in an effort to get re-elected over there because we will be the ones picking up the pieces after Trump gets booted out in November.
China is too powerful a Nation Economically for the UK to pick a fight with.
Be consistent?
Not sign deals if we are simply going to melt when the others break the deal?
Not simply carry on trading like nothing happened?
Not huff and puff, playing to the gallery, with jolly-well threats we plan to not jolly-well carry through?
Put up or shut up?
Good to see Liverpool presented with the trophy last night, they’ll never wok alone.

Of course, it doesn't help that we will no longer be part of the world's largest trading block, we will have a lot less leverage alone, and maybe now we need them more than they need us.
From my own business experiences, I don't trust them and letting them be involved in our nuc power stations seems just crazy.
Regarding the phone technology thing, is it just me or....
Is it a bit far fetched to think that with every bit of 5G kit the Chinese will have added in a transmitter or other secret device so they can read our communications (and possibly our minds)? How does this work, exactly? Do all our communications have to go through a big box in Beijing? Is the bit of mystery kit impossible to locate or analyse? Is it hidden in some little safe like thing in the phone mast? Or is it actually secret software, hidden in the Dark Web?
FFS. Really?
Call me Rod Serling but the Twiglet Zone was a sci fi programme from the 1950s, wasn't it? And the Fi in Sci Fi stands for effing FICTION.
And all this information that's collected, they will be using half a billion members of their population to read it all, sift it, catalogue it, dice it and slice it? Right?
This is all a load of fantasy bollocks propagated by Trump so he can promote the shitter US 4.5G equivalent, isn't it?
The paranoia is being greedily fed on by the 'tin hatters' who believe 5G will make them sterile zombies and that, of course, China can use it as a means of mind control.
This change of heart by HMG is all about doing what Uncle Sam tells us to do, 'or else'.
Boris is a craven dimbot, isn't he? He has 'worked out' we either have to do what America tells us or what China tells us.
Still at least we can line up in an economically powerful bloc with the EU in all this.
Oh.
