She actually started before she even got on the planehttp://m.scotsman.com/news/politics/top-stories/nicola-sturgeon-to-take-human-rights-message-to-china-1-3837769 Nicola Sturgeon has spoken of the importance of respecting human rights ahead of a trade mission to China at the end of this week. The First Minister will promote Scottish business with one of the world’s largest economies when she travels to China and Hong Kong. "I also believe that economic growth and equality are two sides of the same coin. That is why I will be speaking about women’s rights and the benefits equality can bring to the economy" Another cracking post from you. Are you ever right about anything?
