Britain is 'a bi*ch asking for a beating' with its South China Sea warship challenge, Beijing warns

China has warned Britain is 'a bi*ch... asking for a beating' if British warships challenge Beijing's claim to the South China Sea.

The HMS Queen Elizabeth and her carrier group arrived in the disputed waters on Thursday and are set to sail through Beijing's backyard alongside eight other vessels in a show of strength to Chinese President Xi Jingping.

But Chinese state media has warned any move seen as a challenge to islands which Beijing lays claim to would mean Britain 'is being a bi*ch' and 'asking for a beating'.

Editor-in-chief of the state-run Global Times Hu Xijin said China would 'make an example' of any British incursion into waters claimed by Beijing.

'US ships have repeatedly entered the 12-nautical-mile limit of Chinese islets in the South China Sea, and China has exercised maximum restraint,' he said.

'But it doesn't mean we will tolerate such provocations for long, and it definitely doesn't mean US allies can imitate Washington's dangerous acts.'

'To say it precisely, if the UK wants to play the role to coerce China in the South China Sea, then it is being a bitch. If it has any substantial move, it is asking for a beating,' Hu said.

Beijing later toned down the warning, rewriting the line to warn Britain 'is demeaning itself' by trying to have a military presence in the South China Sea.

Chinese state mouthpiece Global Times warned any 'real action' against China would mean British warships were 'looking for a defeat'.

Territorial waters vs International waters are determined by whomever is will to kill and hold those waters.

Interacting with China is like interacting with a spoiled 8 year old.

If china attacks a British warship and sinks it, then NATO will be forced to react. How? Your guess is as good as any.

“How? Your guess is as good as any.”

Oh, it would be devastating. NATO would publicly condemn China’s action, and express extreme outrage.

You know, I kind of enjoy China’s politically incorrect statements, even though I hate the CCP and their policies.

It’s just entertaining to watch how the sissified west deals with direct threats.

Where are the ‘wokers’ where China is concerned. Oh it’s OK because it’s China. Hypocrites.

NATO will do Nothing. Nothing at all. Watch and see.

Look what it took to get the NATO nations involved in Afghanistan.

There is a US destroyer in that battlgroup controlling fleet air defense. You also have a USMC F-35 detachment aboard the Queen Elizabeth. The PLAN takes a potshot at that RN battlegroup, Americans will die.

There used to be an old Brooklyn slogan: “You toucha my car, I breaka you face!” The British have adapted it for their foreign policy, but they have reversed it: “You breaka my car, I toucha you face!” No wonder the Chinese are shaking in their boots.

That’s because every word in the Woke vocabulary actually means only one of two things: “advances the Leftist agenda” and “opposes the Leftist agenda”.

Eventually, I imagine that they’ll shed the redundancy and reduce all language to just two words.
