Britain’s policy towards China appears to be quite simple: doing exactly what China wants. On this week’s View from 22 podcast, Jonathan Mirsky and Fraser Nelson discuss this week’s Spectator cover feature on George Osborne’s visit to China and our interview with the Dalai Lama. Why is the Chancellor so keen to please the Chinese government? Is David Cameron wrong to say he will never meet with the Dalai Lama again? And what does the Dalai Lama think of the Prime Minister’s position?
Rod Liddle and James Delingpole also debate whether they have bad music tastes, following revelation that Delingpole enjoyed listening to Supertramp with the Prime Minister at university. Do all right-wingers inherently have bad music taste? Was Delingpole right to reveal what he got up with Cameron at Oxford?
Plus, James Forsyth and Stephen Bush discuss the upcoming Labour conference and why it will be very to previous gatherings. How will the Blairites be plotting? And who are figures to look out for?
