That was no mistake. The BBC weirdos would never use the word, whores, for anything else, because they’re politically correct weirdos. U.K. business leaders will never relinquish their desires of “empire” and dominion over China.
Given how much the UK has sold out to Chinese interests, I’m not so sure. See Rover and Huawei for example for private and public sector for such examples.
If anything, the BBC could be announcing that elections will happen earlier than usual.
