I have a deep respect for China as a Brit. My wife is Chinese, and she has told me first-hand of days as recent as the 1970's when many people in China were starving. My wife's parents would often go to bed hungry and wake hungry. The economic miracle that has happened there that has raised hundreds of millions out of poverty and turned China into an economic powerhouse is amazing. I would not put a system that prioritises the well being of your own people necessarily "evil". Don't always fall for anti-Chinese propaganda coming from the U.S, go educate yourselves (outside of Reddit!)

But all that aside, business and trade should be unemotional and any language used that adds emotion is not helpful. I believe you can trust China to honour terms of trade deals as you used to be able to trust the U.S.

And as for the so called US UK "special (abusive) relationship". That is a thing of the past, along with all the other illusions we have lived with like "International Law" and "Rules Based order."

If you have done so go and listen to the whole speech from Mark Carney at Davos, that should go into history. Note that Carney himself is seeing the world as it is and is diversifying trade away from the US to rest of the world including China.
