So Mrs May wants to involve the Chinese in our Nuclear Industry, when we are already overwhelmed by shoddy Chinese goods that do not meet our Standards. It doesn't bear thinking about. They are sold on low price so that a few can become rich. Now more often than not, goods made in China are the only ones available. Goods displayed in shops often do not show the country of origin. Fridges and freezers sold by Curry's are a typical example.
Here are a few examples of cheap goods which I bought recently. Bulbs that require the terminals to be filed to fit in their sockets. 'Long-lasting' bulbs that fail given the slightest knock. A floodlight with two lights, one of which did not work. A torch with a wire disconnected where it should have been soldered. The unreliability of these products are undermining what we have been used to with our standards. I always look at the box to see where a product was made. Invariably that product was made in China.
Is this what May means by trading with the Chinese? We sell Jaguars to them. They get away with products that do not meet our standards.
If the Chinese can't make reliable bulbs, how can we trust them with a nuclear power station?????
