Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao continued his European tour Sunday in the central English city of Birmingham, where he visited the Chinese-owned Longbridge MG car factory.

Mr. Wen unveiled the first new MG car model in 15 years, calling it a potent symbol of friendship between London and Beijing.

Outside the factory gates, a group of protesters demanded freedom for Chinese-ruled Tibet. Some of the protesters' placards read “Cameron and Wen: Human rights before trade.”
