I welcome China’s stated aim of ensuring quality development, closely linked to strengthening the rule of law and respect for human rights. This is formulated in the Human Rights Action Plan of China and other policy documents. My team had in-depth discussions on how national legislation and practices must reflect international human rights laws and standards, particularly in relation to law enforcement and judicial procedures, and we look forward to continuing to share our expertise with the Government and judiciary.

The commitment in the Human Rights Action Plan of China to enforce more rigorous procedures for reviewing capital sentences and implement a more stringent mechanism for reporting and reviewing death penalty cases is also welcome. It is important to issue data on the death penalty, and I do hope China will join the growing international momentum towards abolition of the death penalty.

In my discussions with senior officials, the themes of development, peace and security arose in every meeting. Of course, for development, peace and security to be sustainable, it needs to be inclusive and rooted in protection of human rights.

Well, if you want to identify with Paul 1405, that's your business. But there is no need to tell me about it, because I couldn't care less what you think.

ttbn,

You suggest that I report you to Graham?

It won't change anything.

And I don't want to upset your already fragile
mental state and obsession with me.

Take care.

So, I won't be struck off because Foxy knows quite well Graham has better things to think about than her self-regard, and she will go on waffling and advertising for Ockernese and Socialism in general, no matter what the fools who think that they can reason with a full-blown narcissist say to her in the future. She makes a good brick wall to practise their tennis shots on, I suppose.

For me, it's back to my own opinions, although it's getting harder and harder to find something worth having an opinion on, with the same old people saying the same old things.

Hey ttbn,
"Well, if you want to identify with Paul 1405, that's your business. But there is no need to tell me about it, because I couldn't care less what you think."

- That attitude will surely only result in others having the same thoughts about you.

I don't sides with anyone, I don't follow any kind of gang mentality.
I make my arguments based on the merits of the topic in question.
Often this aligns with the sentiments of others, and often it doesn't, but I always think and judge things for myself - and try to stand up for what I think is right.

I'm not against you, not against Paul, not even against Foxy despite the fact she sometimes goes out of her way to get under my skin.
I respect you all as co-citizens of our country, and respect all of your rights to voice your opinion.

Chinese people making solar panels... pfft.
It's about time Australia stopped concerning itself with human rights issues in foreign countries.
- Not our country, not our problem.

Meanwhile...

Is the US stationing nuclear-armed B52 bombers in Australia?
Making us a nuclear target in the event of a war with China?

http://www.smh.com.au/politics/federal/us-nuclear-armed-bomber-visits-allowed-under-australian-treaty-obligations-20230215-p5ckrs.html

American B-52 bombers armed with nuclear warheads could rotate through Australia without breaching treaty obligations, the nation’s most senior defence public servant has indicated.

The Australian public would never be informed whether such aircraft are carrying nuclear weapons under the so-called US policy of “warhead ambiguity” in which it neither confirms nor denies if particular forms of military equipment are nuclear-armed.

While adamantly refusing to address hypothetical scenarios, Foreign Minister Penny Wong said: “The responsible way of handling this is to recognise that the US has a ‘neither confirm nor deny position’ which we understand and respect.”

Theses people want us to be prepared for a war with China, are they insane?
That's like the New Zealand going to war with United States.
The only possible outcome is our complete annihilation.

'Are We Ready For War': Sky News investigates Australia's dire military position amid growing threat from China
http://www.skynews.com.au/australia-news/are-we-ready-for-war-sky-news-investigates-australias-dire-military-position-amid-growing-threat-from-china/news-story/001fd2008115f7851877653825b82ca3

I don't want to go to war with China over Taiwan or the human rights of the Uyghurs. Both our parties support the war against China position.
Democrasy my butt, I want a choice, I want to support neutrality and what's best for Australia, which is NO BLOODY WAR with our largest trading partner in the first place.

Bakhmut... coming to a local town near you real soon.
Say goodbye to your loved ones, for American hegemony and profits.

Insanity.
