The coronavirus pandemic may turn out to be the least of our worries in 2020 following the issuing of an “extraordinary warning” of a possible conflict with China says Sky News host SharriMarkson.

The coronavirus pandemic may turn out to be the least of our worries in 2020 following the issuing of an “extraordinary warning” of a possible conflict with China says Sky News host Sharri Markson. Ms Markson said tensions “are soaring” between the US and China currently. Meanwhile, Australia’s defence experts are starting to warn about a conflict with China that would likely draw in Australia, she said.

It follows comments made by the Australian Strategic Policy Institute’s Peter Jennings who recently told Sky News a military exchange, perhaps in the form of “a shooting of an aircraft out of the sky or a sinking of a ship, is actually high”. He said China is pushing against Taiwan, Japan, South Korea and other South-east Asian Countries. “It’s a dangerous time,” he said. Ms Markson said, “a pandemic may turn out to the least of our worries in 2020”.

SharriMarkson We don’t and shouldn’t have any conflicts with China... we just blindly follow US.... can’t we make our own decisions?

SharriMarkson Thank you, Sharri! For decades the western world has tried not to look at CCP's evil and cruel deeds on Chinese peopel. We have to face it now because they start to murder us.

SharriMarkson Sky News posts their hosts’ personal opinions on China everyday. I thought I clicked into Sky News China.

SharriMarkson Sharri...They don't seem to worried in the US. Most of today's US media is more concerned about Russia. Russia is a subject that Trump avoids like the plague. He prefers to focus on China, a bit like News Corp being a sycophantic megaphone for Trump.

SharriMarkson So your saying Trump needs a war to be re-elected? 🤷‍♂️

SharriMarkson The Communist Party CCP not just bullying or threats. They produced the worst & horrible pandemic in human history and killing millions of people CCP must be accountable and must be taken down!

SharriMarkson The World Health Organisation still continues its deadliest COVID19 coverup in human history! The killer who work for Chinese Communist Party!

SharriMarkson The Chinese Communist Party’s mate, its tag team player WHO is proceeding with the staged inquiry trip. The investigation will be no doubt conducted in designated places with decorated scenes in China leading to a sanitised report. Guess who is going to proofread that? The CCP.

SharriMarkson Someone ask Dan what to do IStandWithDan

SharriMarkson There will be war with China. Prepare now.

SharriMarkson The magnitude of Markson's irrelevance is mindblowing.

SharriMarkson whose side will Dan Andrews take ? 🤔

SharriMarkson This awful panicdemic.
