Beijing to Britain: China in the UK's halls of power


Listen Later

From then-PM David Cameron knocking back pints with Xi at the local pub to the Chinese ambassador being banned from Parliament: how has China's relationship with the UK changed since the so-called Golden Era?

This week we have on Sam Hogg (@BeijingToBrit), the recently unmasked writer behind the Substack Beijing to Britain. Co-hosted by ChinaTalk's editor and crypto journalist Callan Quinn (@Quinnishvili).


We discuss

  • The decline of the UK-China relationship
  • UK attitudes and policy towards Xinjiang, Hong Kong and Taiwan
  • The building up of Chinese expertise within Parliament and the government
  • Confucius Institutes, higher education and Liu Xiaoming's foot fetish

  • Outro music: Shook Ones Part 2 by Mobb Deep https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rTKpYJ80OVQ
