The G7 summit was held from the 11th to the 13th in Cabis Bay, a seaside resort in Cornwall, southwestern England.

Around this offline meeting of the "Developed Countries Clubs", there are endless accusations-violation of epidemic prevention regulations, high security investment, anxious show of unity... and these three details outside the venue are probably poking the heart of the G7 .

Junk version of "President Hill"

　　"Sting their conscience"

　　During the summit, there were protests from near the venue to London, the British capital.

Some protesters held up slogans such as "Stop empty promises" and "Boycott the G7" to protest against the G7's "promises more than actions" in areas such as climate change, environmental protection, vaccine distribution, and social justice.

　　Near the venue of the current G7 summit, an e-waste version of the "Presidential Hill" has recently emerged, imitating the American Mount Rushmore known as the "Presidential Hill", using more than 20,000 pieces of discarded electronics weighing two tons. The product created the heads of the leaders of the seven nations of this summit.

The giant heads of broken computers, rotten mobile phones, vacuum cleaners, old chips, etc. looked down at the Kabis Bay Hotel, the main venue of the summit.

Many locals and tourists came here to "check in".

　　The creator Joe Rush is a British artist.

With the assistance of more than 10 colleagues, he made this "presidential hill" from e-waste uncovered from waste dumps, in order to call on the G7 to pay attention to the negative impact of e-waste on the ecological environment.

　　Rush said: "We use this'president's hill' to stare at them, hoping to sting their conscience and make them realize that they are all producing electronic waste."

　　The sponsor stated that the hazards of e-waste have not attracted enough attention, and the Group of Seven "contributes" about 30% of the 50 million tons of e-waste generated worldwide each year.

According to reports, although India is not a member of the G7, the country was invited to attend the G7 foreign ministers meeting in London this week.

There are too many policemen to live

　　Epidemic in "Dormitory" on the Sea

　　Agatha participated in a protest on the beach near Falmouth, where the media center of the summit was located. The protest sign in her hand reads "G7 summit security investment is up to 70 million pounds."

She told reporters that so much money could have been used to do practical things for the local people.

　　The British government has deployed about 6,000 police forces.

But in Cornwall, which has a small area, poor infrastructure, and few hotels, how to live with so many security personnel has become a big problem.

To this end, the British government arranged for a cruise ship believed to have 4,000 rooms to be anchored at the seaside of an official protest site as a maritime “dormitory” for additional police officers.

　　However, on the opening day of the summit on the 11th, British media reported that there was a case of new crown infection on the cruise ship, which caused more than 10 police officers to hurriedly end their mission and go home for isolation, causing a lot of concerns.

　　On the eve of the summit, the Police Federation of England and Wales had already expressed relevant concerns.

The federation said that many police officers responsible for the security of the G7 summit have not yet been vaccinated against the new crown, and there is a risk of further spread of the mutant strain.

　　The chairman of the federation, John Apter, told the British Home Secretary Patel on the 9th that the government’s decision not to prioritize the inoculation of the police made them feel "betrayed."

　Anxious show unity

　　But I show my loneliness

　　On the opening day of the summit, British Prime Minister Johnson and his newlyweds greeted other participating leaders on the beach outside the venue and greeted everyone.

Johnson deliberately released this welcome video on social media, hoping to show off the G7 spirit of "overcoming the epidemic and uniting as one", but he attracted a lot of criticism.

　　Some netizens accused the leaders of the seven countries of violating the epidemic prevention regulations set by the British government. For example, they must maintain social distancing even if they are vaccinated, and they must be tested or quarantined at entry.

　　A netizen left a message saying: "Pure for the show! I guess they will be intimate and sitting together for dinner soon." "Where are the masks? Except for the Canadian Prime Minister, no one wears a mask." "When will U.S. President Biden come The United Kingdom? 10 days ago? Then he would have enough time to isolate."

　　Some netizens also questioned that at a time when the epidemic is still severe, all parties participating in the meeting chose not to hold a video conference, but instead chose to fly to Cornwall to hold an offline summit. This is neither safe nor environmentally friendly. It is completely contrary to the G7’s relevant conclusion as soon as possible. The new crown epidemic and the commitment to reduce carbon emissions.

　　Johnson also reposted a tweet from Biden on social media, which contained a photo taken on the beach on the eve of the summit.

In the photo, Biden put his left hand on John's shoulder, showing intimacy, which is intended to show the special relationship between Britain and the United States.

　　The British "Times" website reported on the 10th that Biden has ordered US officials to submit a note to Johnson, accusing him of jeopardizing the peace process in Northern Ireland on the issue of Brexit.

Reports say that the submission of the note is a formal diplomatic condemnation, which rarely appears among allies.

It is rare for Mei Ying to show his affection and condemn at the same time.
