China ‘goes after Australia’ with brand new iron ore ‘threat’ | Sky News Australia

China’s The Global Times reported “it seems the Australian government has no intention of sowing new troubles in its trade with China, but the possibility of deteriorating tensions escalating into a trade war should not be ignored”.

Mr Murray said it is clear China is once again “threatening us” and they "are confirming by their actions that they are going after us”. “First it was barley, then a bit on beef and now the big game, iron ore”. The Age reported “China’s customs authorities have released new rules coming into force on June 1 that officials would conduct quality inspections for iron ore shipments at the request of the buyer”. “The buyer of course is the Chinese Communist Party,” Mr Murray said.

What did you think would happen? pm_live So dumb.

Rich that they are questioning the quality of our products!

All australians should stop buying Chinese imported goods such as Air Con, TV;s Washing Machines Solar Panels and any other Chinese goods you can avoid. I check all packaged food in the supermarkets and never buy Chinese. China is now our enemy.

😂😂😂😂

Paul, get your research people on it , because with a third of the urban workforce unemployed, China could be BROKE !!

When someone says they don't want to have anything to do with you again, you move on. China has said this, so Australia should have nothing to do with China ever again and place economic sanctions against them as well.

CCP is a regime that killed and repressed the Chinese people for 70 years. It knows no different because lying and bullying are in its nature. It is happy to make intimidating threats in order to get its way. Are we prepare to risk our independence for high profits from China.

Let them do what they want but take back ownership of Australian investments and stop them buying anything here. We cannot be held over a barrel and forced to submit.

90% taxes on sales of houses and Farms owned by Chinese owners, that would work 😁

No Shit Sherlock! Slow to catch on!

China is result of evolution by unnatural selection from days of barbaric Genghis Khan. In effect, China leaders are missing basic human characteristics that is responsible for sentiments of empathy and guilt, unable to liaise fear and anxiety, thus react like a predatory insect.

Murray should start by telling the clown party he shoots off at the mouth about to shut their Traps! Havnt the farmers been through enough,primary produces coping with failed policies from a failed government with no Plan for the Country wake up ScottyFromMarketing Disgraceful

America loves Australia 🇦🇺 🇦🇺 Our most important StrategicPartner. Send us your beef 🥩 and lamb ! Rugby the new national sport!

oz_jacko Forget tit for tat . Stop all imports to China and freeze all Chinese assets .

The more you bully CCP, the worst you look. Australia is staying dignified.

And our stupid governments have over decades now thrown ‘all the eggs in one basket’. Now we have a bitter lesson to learn. Trust politicians? No way.

There is a simple solution to emd this. realDonaldTrump to launch 8 nuclear bombs on Beijing and Shanghai.

Let's hurt them back !

From the great Winston Churchill “we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be.”

If Labor didn't sign and ratify the fricken UN Industrial Development Organization, Lima Declaration in 1975, Australia would have a more diverse resources base. In turn more people in manufacturing jobs and no need for a welfare state like in Hong Kong.

Great can not wait to find out

The Chinese citizen have had enough. They have been protesting in Australia 🇦🇺 for quite some time including in their own country. I don’t think Australia needs to do much. The Chinese people will take care of the CCP!

Time to let them go.

Better than having the Red flag flying above Parliament House, as it would eventually have been.

Cut their food and mineral supply for a month and see how tough they are ... they will collapse. They are nearly more dependant on our shit then we are theirs. Fact

Don’t sell it to them!!!

Who else thinks this is going to start a war? 😬

Unlike China, Australian government doesn't have a tenuous grip on power. Australia can take a hit and come back. If the CCP takes a hit - there will be blood in the water and sharks will come.

China is playing games with us. Now it’s gotten serious because China is drawing criticism over Coronavirus. Morrison is doing ok but he needs to tread very carefully. We can’t win this. Only one way forward. That is to keep playing the game and not to allow the US to draw us in.

Paul Murray. Have you got quotes from Ronald McDonald and Madonna too?

ChinaLiedPeopleDied

Bring it.

Australians want the baby formula to stay in Australia.stop allowing shipment back to China.

Oh stop the press, they want to do quality inspections on a product they are buying.... wow what a scoop

The only thing hurting Australia’s economy is the Liberals/Nationals and the Murdoch media

Most of the comments here are LNP/IPA bots vs Pro China bots. 🤣

We need to QUICKLY expose these so called 'aus citizens ' who at The drop of a hat and by direct orders from ccp were willing to Load up containers worth of our goods and ship them back to thier true homeland. These are Chinese owned large companies and traitors to our country.

PaulineHansonOz is one of the very few who have been warning Australia for many years to the threat of the Chinese Communist Party to our economy and way of life. She will not be silenced by those attempting to shut her down with the race card. AusPol 🦘

Cmon!...bring it on!

Vile regime

Looks like someone’s getting a bit worried. Enjoy your shit baby formula & your rubbish beef. Keep your students who come to get the best education in the world & take back every Chinese person in Aus aligning their loyalty by sending OUR PRODUCTS TO CHINA. We don’t want them.

This is it! The time has come for us to decouple from them! Many countries in the world would LOVE Aussie made goods and quality exports! sovereignaustralia localmanufacturing localprocessing localaussie

Australians don't want Chinese substandard products!! TwoWayStreet TheGreatAwakening

Aus media being played by Chinese propaganda,such as coal which is specific to a power station design & ironically would hurt Chinese interests in port charges for exporting coal from Aus. Media needs to turn off the megaphone diplomacy sooner than later,all a diversion!

Time to find new buyers

This is just like back in the ancient days where Might is Right. Australia needs to put it's big pants on and face China or else we'll forever be a lapdog to them

Well let’s be childish then . Seriously grow up . Threats and bullying. Show your only interest is in yourself. And now the world see the real side off China

Just deport every Chinese person in Australia back to Coronaland! fuck the lot of them! Even if they own businesses and land here they leave with nothing! Then they can knock on that communist piece of shits door and wtf dude!

If there is anything that could be called good about the Wuhan CCP virus is that it has started to pull the blinders from the worlds eyes showing us the true nature of the CCP. The world must decouple from the dictatorship and learn to trade around the CCP.

Get in line ,we have our own politicians working on that.

Well done Morrison you muppets

So with Twiggy and all his kowtowing is going to look pretty stupid now.

Remember, unlike in the west, China’s economy is completely artificial! The economic numbers figures that the CCP produce are unverifiable. Covid and the related crisis is our opportunity to cut ties, find other markets, better shield ourselves from inevitable collapse of China!

A lack of cultural awareness resulted in Australia throwing the first punch. China are now punching back a little harder.

Sky news stirring shit again.

Well, we don't need a reason but have needed a push to turn our natural resources into finished goods. Why not just fuck communist occupied china off all-together?

This is war!!! Once those 3 diesel powered outdated inept $550billion submarines are finished in 2063, you CCP are in HUGE trouble....

Time for Australia to go into rehab and ween our self of this toxic drug called Ghina gold

Is Australia China2 now? So if I travel to Australia I will actually be traveling to China2. So I see Australia is no longer its own country.

Sky news belong to FOX news. If u stand the us gov shoes, u can make sense.

SKY NEWS. YOU PROTECT TRUMP SO MUCH YOU TWIST THE STORY FROM TRUMP ACTUALLY RUINING OUR TRADE WITH CHINA

Who said? Resources?

Australian should be clear ,you are not Americans ,you don’t have the power to force china do as your wish ,cuz you don’t have technology or military power like the US,do things as you can .or nobody is happy .

Australians seem to forget they, at the beck and call of their master, the US, banned Huawei from their 5G programs without any justified reasons and have been accusing China of evil intentions in the Covid-19 pandemic. Now you start crying foul?

Bring it on 'CHINA' remember we hold the ace to this debate yes baby formula!

go have a try, stop exporting anything to China. Learn from America in stock market. be tough be brave. let’s see who will be toast first

Thanks Scomo.

This is why we can’t do business with a genocidal regime that lies, steals, spies, coerces,bullies,infiltrates,..its a shame it took a pandemic to realize this. They have tantrums like a 3yr old every time they do t get their way. Next time they need something price ACCORDINGLY!

F& CCP now, its time Auspol stand up to the threat...and give them back what they deserve a kick on their flat buttts....

CCP are truly an evil bunch of criminals that is a threat to the whole 🌎

This is golden journalism, hyping up racism based on pre-conceived notions about communism at the expense of Australian exports. Even when resource exports, your golden calf, is at threat, you guys double down with the nationalist crap. I’m afraid the brainwashing is feeding back

The CCP and Xinnie the Pooh are losing so much face on so many fronts at the moment.

Says Australia one of the most racist countries on the planet ask a native Australian.

China is indeed drunk on power however the Chinese economy is like a HOUSE OF CARDS - their economy is in dire straits. Looking forward to the collapse. You can't believe one word they say, they are like gangsters thieving in the night! Your threats show weakness not strength!

What can we indians do to help? We stand with Australia and her brave people.

Our big problem - Australia is the most China-dependent economy in the developed world. The other big problem is that most people in Australia are not aware of that fact.

1Naasty what does Australia produce that China needs Food!!

$1.7B solar panel subsidies solely pay for the importation from China: Kelly | Sky News AustraliaLiberal MP Craig Kelly says Australia should 'extend' the argument of anti-subsidies China has used to place tariffs on barley to the billions of dollars-worth of solar panels Australia imports from China which are almost entirely subsidised.\n\nChina officially levelled a close to 80 per cent tax on Australia's barley growers amid threats based on allegations of the barley industry dumping into the Chinese market.\n\nMr Kelly told Sky News host Andrew Bolt Australia subsidises the solar panel industry to the tune of $1.7 billion which is a 'hidden green tax' on electricity bills.\n\n'Those subsidies actually underwrite the importation of solar panels into this country'.\n\nHe said when a consumer puts solar panels on their roof, the installer 'gets a subsidy paid through the government,' but the subsidy which flows through to the installer 'helps them pay for the importation of the panels'.\n\n'The cost of the subsidy is equal to the cost of the importation of the solar panels we have from China'.\n\nImage: AP CraigKellyMP Are the LiberalAus party determined to completely wreck our economy?

Fears China could further cripple Aust exports | Sky News AustraliaThere are fears of major trade reprisals from China, which has reportedly written up a list of other Australian goods in the firing line. \n\nWith a third of Australia’s exports sold to China, Australia’s National Farmers Federation CEO Tony Mahar said he was “acutely aware” of speculation China could impose economic taxes on other Australian industries. \n\n“We’re always conscious of any disruptions to trade in an export dominated industry like agriculture where we export two thirds of what we produce, and a third of that goes to China,” he said. \n\nAfter a historic vote at the World Health Assembly overnight, world leaders agreed to establish an inquiry into the COVID-19 response – vindicating Australia’s push for a probe into the COVID-19 outbreak. \n\nFederal Health Minister Greg Hunt said Australia was committed to the global inquiry but wanted it to be as independent as possible from the World Health Organisation. \n\nLabor leader Anthony Albanese told Sky News his party supported the government and its unwavering push for an independent inquiry, saying “the Coalition and Labor have been at one, we have had the same position on this matter”. \n\nImage: Getty We support you Australia So what bring it on, there is only one way to treat a bully.
