  1. How's that different if you buy a Chinese product via a UK retailer? Apart from paying a middle man I can't see how that's not funding the same regime.

  2. Everything you buy is impregnated with Chinese shitery. Even top end Swiss watches have Chinese components… And even Ducati’s. Probably…
     
  3. I like my iphone, and the fact that its made in China doesn't bother me in the slightest.

  5. That reminds me, need to pick up my calendar. That fucker ain’t made in China ;)

  7. Some Pirelli tyres are made in China but, if you trust a Google AI summary, most are still manufactured in Europe. Andy
     
  8. Google AI is not very accurate. It tells lies.
     
  9. I see Italy barred China from taking a controlling interest in Pirelli although it looks like they still own ~45%

    Rather strangely China does own Filippo Berio - by the even strangely named 'Bright Group'
