BRITAIN should resist becoming a “cheap vassal state” of the United States following along with the new cold war on China, journalist and film-maker John Pilger said at the weekend.

“When you hear some of the American politicians and the so-called experts [rail against China], it is about saying ‘how dare they challenge Western superiority ... how dare they challenge our divine right to do as we wish in the world?”
