PM stablises British-Chinese Relations

The Times

" David Cameron is said to be visiting China in the near future in an attempt to sooth relations between the two countries after David Miliband offended a Chinese official on Monday.
An invitation to Mr Cameron was extended by Chinese President Hu Jintao as they met for talks on the fringe of the G20 summit in Toronto. Mr Cameron, a connoisseur of Chinese delicacies, agreed strongly with the Chinese President Hu Jintao on the need to increase trade between the UK and China.
The Chinese president said Mr Cameron had telephoned him on his second day as PM, "signalling his readiness to make a stronger relationship" with China. Mr Cameron joked that he was actually trying to call his local take-away, but 'this result was equally as useful to the growth of Britain and not just his stomach'.

Mr Cameron is likely to raise the issue of the trained '50 foot millipedes' which are powering China's cities, especially after it has been rumoured that three of them escaped from one of their holding areas and is responsible for the recent destruction of two tourist boats in Thailand, where 2 British tourists are said to be 'critical'.
