target for china to choose. it was always going to side with the us when push comes to shove. because of its resource endowments it's got unusually large amounts of leverage. pushed by china on australia hasjust leverage. pushed by china on australia has just resulted firstly in australia doubling down on diversifying its export rays. it's termed public and political opinion in that country firmly against china. there's no political gains to be had by being too friendly. the fact that china's economy growth has been slowing down, do you think that is playing a role in the improved

agreement where it will get nuclear submarines, pressure like firms like huawei and foreign investment. china's economy is in a weak spot so that they could do with fewer problems. and repairing the

life of people living in this area. the company behind the plan says if it goes ahead, they'll pay £1 million a year to projects suggested by the community. this is just the start of a consultation
