‘Absurdity’ not to call China a threat, says ex-Tory leader

Sir Iain Duncan Smith has accused the government of watering down its position on China, saying it is an “absurdity” that ministers will not refer to the state as a threat.

The former Conservative Party leader said: “For some reason we seem to be intent on not upsetting China by not saying anything accusative about them at all.” Report by Buseld.
