You are talking about countries that produce motor cars which halve the amount of petrol consumption. The Prius is so brilliant and clever. You are talking about a country like China which puts a satellite up into the sky every second week. Are we going to compete against those countries? Good luck to you but I have to say that the statement is not only wrong and simplistic but it is also very dangerous and contains a certain amount of racial arrogance. I am sorry to say that, but that is my belief.
