Is Lisa Nandy ......

...... Saying "NO" to Chinese developers?

Tonker

She is in a funny position regarding the Chinese involvement in The Galleries redevelopment.

Hi Tommy ,can you explain wh(y she is in a funny position)? GB

Typical two faced MP.....they forget the eyes of the media are always upon them....In the army we had a saying.....the higher they go, the thicker they are and she is a prime contender....

It's looking that way but who knows with her.
Wouldn't trust her words anymore than I would trust the word of any politician today. All self seeking career politicians with no principles or moral backbone.

Because she has a very important job in the Shadow Cabinet, she is the Shadow Foreign Secretary.

Shadow Cabinet

As such, she has to adopt the Labour Party Policy towards China, which is not a clear policy, and neither is the Conservative Government's policy towards China clear.

Both parties welcome Chinese investment into this country, which is huge, but both parties deplore the human rights abuses which go on in China, but all they can do is have a moan at China about those abuses.

Another thing is that the Chinese company concerned in the Wigan development, maybe an excellent law-abiding and decent company in China, which looks after its staff.

So I think it is a bit stupid to say that Wigan Council should not deal with a Chinese company.

Wigan council don’t have a choice!
