The world has 'glossed over' China's actions for too long

The world has "glossed over" the things which are taking place in China for too long, according to former Speaker of the House Bronwyn Bishop.

"We're finally coming to terms with the fact that we're prepared to out it and talk about it," she told Sky News host James Morrow.

"And we mustn't let the Winter Olympics sort of put a nice little shield over China again and forget about the issues that are very real."

Anyone actually influenced by these self titled "Influencers" are absolutely pathetic.

China should never have been given the games. Anyone remember Berlin 1936? Everyone accepts that was a mistake and they hadn't even started genocide properly. China has.

[johnpatrick]

Full Boycotts should have announced years ago when China was selected for the Olympics.

Politicians and big business are the culprits... greed

[richc]

Australians worry about China when they should be worrying about Julian Assange!😱🙀

Finally a woman with morals and the balls to tell the truth!!!

[AximandTheCursed]

Paid for opinions, bribed for positive feedback, or blackmailed for praise, which CCP program were you signed up for this week?

[curtisburns]

Hey look it’s that lady who liked charging her helicopter joyrides to the taxpayer.

[AC-zfek]

How was China EVER awarded the games to start with?

[danis]

From Russia With Love .
From China With Happiness
And Prosperity .

Many Youtubers from the US, UK and NZ are working for CCP

[andrewlambert]

I cannot agree more. They have done it because they were allowed to do so because they are the factory of the world. The USA and Europe made them the factory of the world.

[happyskippy]

I thought Olympics are not to be politicised

[hathor]

Our gov paid factories to relocate to China so that thing could get made cheaper, it didn’t matter that we lost jobs. We moved from manufacturing to service jobs. Why don’t we focus on what sort of industries we can create in the future.

Beware of the CHINESE TROLLS who post comments here and on other Sky News Australia news feeds.

[trevofbillysville]

The Libs have allowed China to own over half of Australia and Bronwyn(the worst speaker ever) was part of it .

[jimmydseeker]

It is Australia that needed a PR agency to promote their country cause it is Australia who needed it most.

[blakeedwards]

Do you think Australia is any different with the "glossing over " ? We have far too long ignored the incentive of Chinese $ for selling out of our way of life and morals. We are all complicate in this, only the benefit varies. The majority never had a choice.

Let’s ‘Remove the plank from our own eye first’

[andrewokobah]

Despite the rules that bind member nations of the great Olympic Organization, participating in that event will be at great risk to the athletes. My personal opinion.
