Remember Tiananmen.


Mr Smith appreciates the real politiks of the world in which we live where in order to protect living standards at home, we have to embrace regimes that we wouldn't want to live under at home.

But he cannot let British British Prime Minister Gordon Brown's recent visit to China pass without reminding people of the democracy activits who died in Tiananmen Square in 1989. How much longer will we have to wait until improving living standards, Westernisation and dealing with the Chinese government brings democracy to China? How much is our democracy worth?
