Liz Truss urges 'economic Nato' to stand up to China

Liz Truss has used her first overseas speech since resigning as Britain's prime minister to call on the west to safeguard Taiwan’s security and economy in the face of Chinese aggression 'before it's too late'.

Speaking in Tokyo at a meeting of mainly conservative politicians, Truss said Britain had been naive to court the Chinese president, Xi Jinping, in 2015. She said Russia’s invasion of Ukraine should serve as a warning of what happens when democracies fail to stand up to authoritarian regimes.

'When it comes to China, a failure to act now could cost us dearly in the long run,' said Truss, who is Britain’s shortest-serving prime minister, having spent just 45 days in office when she resigned last October.

"Hello, I historically trashed the UK economy and I'm here to lecture you on stuff..."

I really wish they’d update her software. You’d have thought they’d have been able to patch out the stiffness by now.
Can you imagine the ERG’s disappointment when they wished upon a star and this is what they got, Geppetto got lucky apparently

An "economic North Atlantic Treaty Organization" - in Tokyo! What an impressive come-back of a awesomely talented politician!

[Baldwinthegreatest]

This lady is trying to start a World War which humanity can't afford. This ain't guns game, this is nuclear game. The power you can't imagine

[wilhelmfurtwangler]

An “Economic NATO”. Errr, we had that Liz. It’s called the European Union.

[pwelele]

lol is she still relevant? If we learnt one thing from this catastrophe, it is that we must not do what she says 😂

[Dungshoveleux]

Liz Truss is better left in a padded sound proofed room.

[ATtravel]

If only there was a large scale economic union of different countries who came together and pooled their economic sovereignty. They would be in a position of economic strength to stand up to China.

[Budanevey]

Through the use of tax incentives and tariffs have western companies pivot away from utilising China for manufacturing...

[reeling-in]

The woman who kept Labour out of No.10! 😂😂😂😂😂

[anthonyclegg]

What is she going on about, everything is made in China, we can't afford to buy British.
