Originally posted by Oracle View PostIn Britain, the group will be co-chaired by the Labour peer Helena Kennedy and the former Conservative party leader Iain Duncan-Smith.
The other members of the group are Japan, Canada, Norway, Sweden, Germany, Australia and the European Union, as well as the US.
The US senators Marco Rubio and Robert Menendez are co-chairs.
China’s increasingly authoritarian direction under Xi Jinping has undermined the belief that drove decades of engagement by democratic countries: that as the country became wealthier, it would open up politically.
The group said in a statement: “The assumptions that once underpinned our engagement with Beijing no longer correspond to the reality.
“The Inter-Parliamentary Alliance on China has been created to promote a coordinated response between democratic states to challenges posed by the present conduct and future ambitions of the People’s Republic of China.”
“By developing a common set of principles and frameworks that transcend domestic party divisions and international borders, our democracies will be able to keep the rules-based and human rights systems true to their founding purposes.”Last edited by Double Edge; 06 Jun 20,, 10:08.

Communist China was never going to change. It fooled liberal western democracies in believing it would. Just like how Pakistan deceives the US time and again.Politicians are elected to serve...far too many don't see it that way - Albany Rifles! || Loyalty to country always.

They found 45 asymptomatics out of 517 at the wholesale market. That is a nearly 9% positivity rate.
Wholesale market in Chennal caused similar problem a month back. Took well over a month to deal with.
What they refer to as 'wartime emrgency' lock down is normal in my city when cases are found. Barricades come up on the street or housing community where the cases were found and stay like that for close to a month. They continue testing and monitor contacts in the containment zone.Last edited by Double Edge; 14 Jun 20,, 01:12.

5) There's a line up for cremation right now. Any corpse going to the creamation centre ain't going to get first dibs.
Translation to all this - complete and utter horse puckey.Chimo

Looks like triage at work here. People who have no hope of recovery/sure death in say a few hours may have been zipped in body bags by the hospital staff to make way for newer Covid-19 patients.
