CHANCELLOR Rachel Reeves returned to London on Monday January 13, following a three-day visit to China that took her to Beijing and Shanghai.
This first visit by a British Chancellor to the Asian economic giant in more than five years restarted the Economic and Financial Dialogue (EFD) between the two countries, delivered limited but definite gains for the British economy, and was mired in domestic political controversy.
In protocol terms, the high point of Reeves’s visit was her meeting with Chinese Vice-President Han Zheng.
