Caroline Wilson, Britain's new Ambassador to China after she posted a photograph on social media holding a copy of the book 'Governance of China' authored by Xi Jinping presented by Chinese Ambassador Liu Xiaoming when she met him. Viewers interpreted that as an endorsement of the hard-line policies of Chinese President Xi Jinping. Interestingly, Liu Xiaoming didn’t choose to upload this photo.

(Comment: Caroline Wilson had been posted earlier as Consul General in Hongkong.)
