Hey look: the (far) East wants in

By Paul Wells

Many of you seem already to have found my column from this week’s print edition, in which I patiently explain the strategy behind the Prime Minister’s trips to China and India. I’d have thought this column would upset people who don’t like Harper, because it’s one of my periodic he’s-playing-chess efforts; instead it’s upset at least one commenter who does like Harper, and is cross at me for suggesting the Prime Minister would travel anywhere out of any motive besides sheer benevolence. You remain an unpredictable bunch, dear Inkless Irregulars.
