Interesting speculation, Zoid. However, I believe that Joss has also referred to the "Sino-American Alliance". And I know that the official seal/emblem of the Alliance is an amalgam of the respective flags of the PRC and the USA (seen most clearly in TTJ during the heist, and commented on by Joss himself).
If he did indeed refer to it as a "Sino-Anglo" Alliance(news to me), I would speculate that he was referring to (stereotypically)predominant ethnicity, not nationality. The fact that he spent some of his formative years in the UK may have influenced his inclusion of prominent British cultural heirs, such as Badger and his ilk.
Anyhow, that's one man's opinion...
