One thousand plus shipments of Chinese solar panels have been stalled by U.S Customs since last June because of a suspicion that the panels were made by forced labour.

The panels in question are freely available in Australia. The Socialists said that they would not have a bar of "modern slavery"; but the Americans are doing something about it, with their Act, 'The Uyghur Forced Labor Protection Act'.

The Australian Strategic Policy Institute has found that around 80,000 people have been assigned to forced labour groups in China. (Menzies
Research Centre).

America has never engaged in slavery, and they're not about to start now! I'm sure there is a political component in 'The Uyghur Forced Labour Protection Act'. Physical slavery might have mostly gone but economic slavery is alive and well in United States.

Its a fact of life, that much of the prosperity we in the West enjoy is due to the economic exploration of people in the third world. You should remember that the next time you purchase a pair of Bangladeshie made undies from K-Mart. Maybe we need 'The K-Mart Forced Labour Protection Act'.

Stuff from the far right 'Australian Strategic Policy Institute' and the 'Menzies Mob' may not necessarily be unbiased when it comes to all thing Chinese.

As I have observed before, Foxy's yapping lapdog, Paul 1405, likes to have 'references' so that he can call them names. Bugger the topic, just spew drunken abuse, and generally play the retard.

ttbn,

Where's the name calling? Far Right is now name calling, no its just a fact. The only name calling I see here is from you, with the disparaging "lapdog" tag, and insulting claim of "drunken abuse".

ttbn,

Why are you calling Paul "Foxy's lap dog?"
Why bring me into it?
But then I guess if you think he's my "lap do?"
What does that make you? "Foxy's attack dog?"

Not nice. Not nice at all.
Your obsession with me is again coming through on this forum.

Graham are you reading this?
Think it's fair?

Yes Foxy,

He calls me a "retard" amazingly I was once suspend for calling another a "nincompoop" this guy can come out of right field and throw abuse with total impunity, and lots of it. I don't care, the other day he told an admitted 97 year old poster he should soon find out if there a god or not, I see that as abuse as well, abuse takes many forms.

BTW, he does have a fixation with you. Strange, oh well.
