Will Trump’s tariffs lead to an emboldened Beijing in the Taiwan Strait?
US involvement and sanctions will already be part of planning for any actions towards Taipei by mainland China, observers say.

This. An emergency recall of parliament on a weekend for British Steel. Nothing at all for UK HE which employs far more people, has already shed 10,000 academic jobs, with several institutions on the brink of collapse.
A reminder: we train all the doctors, teachers, engineers, nurses, lawyers &c &c

If you are visiting the United States, having a negative view of Trump is enough to get you denied entry.
If this was coming out of Russia or China, we would deplore such an authoritarian attack on freedom of expression.
