Analysis | Digital Editor Jack HoughtonChina has admitted its trade war on Australian wine was sparked by the rejection of Huawei and calls for an investigation into the source of COVID-19. Chinese President Xi Jinping’s state-owned newspaper The Global Times also issued a threat to the Australian Government that the wine probe should be seen as a “stern warning” to stop “stirring up animosity toward China”.
Yesterday a once-proud member of the communist party, Professor Cai Xia, became the face of rare public criticism of Xi. Cai taught the next generation of the communist party’s leadership for 15 years at the elite Central Party School. But after speaking out against Xi’s brutal rule in academic articles and speeches she was booted from the party.
Houghtontweets For the benefit of its own country, what Australia should and must do is to do business with China and coexist peacefully. Australia should not try to block China's path forward in any form.
Houghtontweets Small minds..
Houghtontweets I know how hard it is to find Australian made products. But I now make a much bigger effort to find them. We need to also make a much bigger effort to increase production of all goods here. I don’t care if it costs more, the money stay here!
Houghtontweets Surely they have enough info on the future if Australia through people who use Tik-Tok, right? Why would they need Huawei to spy on us further?
Houghtontweets It is more than normal to launch an inquiry to these sort of events. What does the CCP have to hide? Is that the fact that the virus is not from a seafood market but from a lab?
collins_barrie Houghtontweets Judging by the number of Aussie wine bottles in my street on glass collection day, the fight to rescue their wine industry has begun in earnest.
Houghtontweets Yea Australian news is so shit

Houghtontweets 澳洲人应该聪明一点，为了自己的利益着想。
Houghtontweets China is nothing without the rest of the world.. The world is better without China. Global trade boycots will set them straight.. there's a whole fuking world to sell our shit to. If we can survive covid, then we can flick chaina like a an ant easily.
Houghtontweets Tell them to stop interfering in our internal affairs
Houghtontweets
Houghtontweets Great, good to see cracks are appearing 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Houghtontweets Really fail to understand why this western media can make such day light shameless lies!
Houghtontweets Relationships between the two countries have deteriorated rapidly since this tyrant came to power.
Houghtontweets Well most people were going to want an inquiry into the origins of Covit 19 But come on China we love you guys the people that is not so keen on a government that wants to push us around
Houghtontweets I’ve said this elsewhere... BAN China from importing our: - Iron ore (sell to eu) - Our Quality meat - powered milk products - fresh fruit and vegetables. See what happens. Just because something is hard doesn’t mean we shouldn’t do it. They’ll come begging!
PrincessofWails Houghtontweets They’re such a lovely bullying dictatorial torturing nation let’s hear it for China 🇨🇳
Houghtontweets Who cares? America will buy all Australian wines.
Houghtontweets We can do without China if DFAT earns its pay.
Houghtontweets That is funny coz China has shown the Aus govt up now, they denied it could be the case, preferring to brush it off as part of normal trade. Whoops!!
Houghtontweets Recently heard on radio a caravan/camper maker saying they only build frames with rest flat-packed from China. Tell OZ industry how much it costs and allow them to match. Same with Bunnings and others. Tell how much willing to pay for item/volume and see if OZ industry can match
noot_noot_noot_ Houghtontweets ccp politicised everything and accused others of being too political. Absence of logic.
Houghtontweets The world and OZ need to reframe from rebuild to build. Never be the same. We need to manufacture, process and package here as much as possible, whilst diversifying exports away from China. If something too expensive to do here, help other countries to take that role from China.
Houghtontweets I think China can only blame itself vis-a-vis Covid-19 and giving us a “stern warning” to stop “stirring up animosity toward China” is just bullying tactics in my book. No-one likes a bully. Don't they know that you can catch more flies with honey than vinegar!

Houghtontweets Starting to see their true face. It ain’t good.
Houghtontweets Need to encourage development of industries in Indonesia, East Timor and Pacific to manufacture, process and package those widgets we can't do at reasonable cost in Oz. Jobs for them without sweatshops and diversifies our options. Makes good friends. Good use of OZ O/S aid
Houghtontweets Decouple.
Houghtontweets Try and replace China with another 1$1 billion wine export!! This is what you get when we do not use diplomacy to discuss differences!! Scomo must start to realise by now that megaphone diplomacy to please USA will only hurt us!!
Houghtontweets Can you post that admission please. It’s not that we don’t believe you it’s that YOU LIE.
Houghtontweets I hear him. Everyone lives above and below and nobody on the level.
