Keir Starmer raises 'deterioration' of jailed pro-democracy activist Jimmy Lai with Xi Jinping
Sir Keir Starmer raised the “deterioration” of jailed pro-democracy activist Jimmy Lai when he met Xi Jinping.
The Prime Minister held talks with the Chinese president at the G20 summit in Brazil, where he also stressed he wants “respectful” relations between the UK and Beijing.
For a fraction of a second, as my eye caught that headline, I briefly registered it as a reference to a jailed pro-democracy activist in the UK - which of course it wasn't.
Merely a flicker of perception as my eye scanned some headlines, but as they say, a sign of the times. Must stop scanning headlines though, most of them are clickbait.

On another website I mentioned my wondering whether 2TK was "on the spectrum". No, I was firmly told, he is a sociopath.
dearieme - as an outsider in these matters, he doesn't come across to me as a sociopath, but "on the spectrum" seems to fit. Plus the ideology of course, which muddies the waters.
