    Perhaps the oversight was they were too dumb to expect it to spread worldwide, perhaps the plan was just to destroy the Chinese economy and hold them to ransom over the vaccine? Or maybe they already bought the shares at rock bottom ahead of Trump's announcement?

    They multi billionaires club were buying and selling the pound and stocks and shares before and after each of Johnson's announcements on Brexit, knowing in advance what those announcements would be and how they would affect the market

    Shares are plummeting because the minority in the know started selling theirs en masse before the market crashed to induce the panic in the market to make it crash and will buy the best on offer back at rock bottom and make billions again after the vaccine has been released and the pandemic has been arrested
    I definitely had a thought similar. That the US have done this to damage China and put them back in their box as the phrase goes.
    Even the Chinese foreign minister has said he thinks the US unleashed it during the military games in Shanghai in Nov 2019.
    But then again I wouldn't trust China as far as I could spit. They are a sinister government, how can you trust a communist country whose human rights record is appalling. Their handling of this before it went global has been shambolic and yet nobody really knows what's happening there as their "news" cant be trusted.
    After Li Wenliand died there was a social media group who were continually silenced after speaking amongst eachother about it.
    Their distrust of the west goes way back to the opium wars when Britain and others shafted them completely. That's how Hong Kong ended up in British hands for 100 years, they ceded it to us so we would stop flooding China with addictive opium. In short they trust no fucker.

    'Their news can't be trusted' and ours can? really? did you see the news during the general election campaign? Do you watch the 'these are the bad guys' reports on Syria and wonder where the far worse footage of Yemen who we keep supplying our allies the Saudis with the arms to do it is?

    Our news can't be trusted, it was absolute disgraceful during the general election and contains every bit as much propaganda and telling people a very biased narrative and misinforming people by omission as N Korea or China

    The most likely reason for the Chinese Gov's appalling handling of the virus was to deliberately spread it worldwide as a big fuck you to the US

    Good take on things all govt's in my opinion in it for themselves so we can't as you say claim to be the only true source of news.
    The only reason i pay attention to what Trump is doing is for the stock markets my future pensions are tied up in it and although its a pittance to many i lost over $12000 in this last week or so and that is a lot to me.in terms of pensions

    Agree. I just think they tip the scales due to their human rights record and how people "disappear" there.

    They do, except we hear about it, we don't hear about the people who 'disappear' in our allies nations and we bury things for 30 years like David Kelly being bumped off for telling everyone there were no WMD's in Iraq

    And we hear about China's human rights violations, but we still trade with them because the billionaires can make more profit as a result of them

    Also, applying common sense, why would China deliberately sabotage and attempt to destroy their own economy? It doesn't make sense does it?

    I doubt the west would wilfully refuse to deal with a deadly virus so it can kill thousands world wide. China is a terrible country.
    I feel sorry for the Chinese people they are so respectful.

    Hello? Is that the BBC, ITV or any number of dubious daily rags or the ministry of misinformation posting?
