While the tabloid stopped short of an outright endorsement, there have been concerns over Beijing’s mouthpiece singling Mr Sunak out. A government source said: ‘It’s worrying that China – which is the biggest strategic threat to the West and our democratic values – seems to want Rishi as our next PM. What does that say about him?’

NOW FOR THE GOOD BIT as we all know

The lucrative Chinese subsidiary of Infosys, an Indian IT firm founded by Mr Sunak’s father-in-law Narayana Murthy, employs 3,300 workers at its offices in Shanghai, Beijing, Dalian, Hangzhou and Jiaxing.

Mr Sunak’s wife Akshata Murty owns a £700million stake in Infosys.

Considering Tom Tugendhat is the British MP China hates most  we have quite a "polar opposites" here with "Agent India"

so my vote for for PM by default would have to be "Mavis".........  Trusst Mavis
