Tony Danker, Director-General of the CBI, said UK businesses expect relations between Beijing and the West to deteriorate further, with many British companies accelerating their efforts to shift business from China to other countries.
“Every company I talk to at the moment is engaged in rethinking their supply chains,” he said. “Because they anticipate our politicians will inevitably accelerate towards a decoupled world from China.”
Danker said that if the West cut ties with China, Britain would need to find new trading partners and re-engage with old ones, such as EU countries.
“If the political and security experts are right, we are all going to need to be good friends again,” he said.
At present, the two contenders in the contest to become the new British prime minister, British Foreign Secretary Liz Truss and former Chancellor of the Exchequer Rishi Sunak, are both vying to show their tough stance on the CCP, showing that Britain’s attitude toward the CCP is undergoing a dramatic change.
Lately, British companies are also restructuring their supply chains in preparation for an increasingly tough anti-communist political sentiment, Danker said.
He warned that removing China from our corporate supply chains could lead to inflation. However, it would “redefine the trading strategy for Britain.”Danker pointed out that in the future, “it’ll be no longer who we sell to but where we source from.”There are signs that many Western firms are trying to cut ties with China.

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
